Product Description

Based on Tom Clancy's bestseller, directed by John McTiernan (Die Hard) and starring Sean Connery and Alec Baldwin, The Hunt For Red October seethes with high-tech excitement and sweats with the tension of men who hold Doomsday in their hands. A new technologically-superior Soviet nuclear sub, the Red October, is heading for the U.S. coast under the command of Captain Marko Ramius (Connery). The American government thinks Ramius is planning to attack. A lone CIA analyst (Baldwin) has a different idea: he thinks Ramius is planning to defect, but he has only a few hours to find him and prove it - because the entire Russian naval and air commands are trying to find him, too. The hunt is on!

Holds Up Well To Repeated Viewing & Tests Of Time, Alec Baldwin Young & Slender!
I continue to enjoy The Hunt For Red October. It just holds up well over the decades for me. The idea of a Soviet era submarine commander going rogue (I'm trying to not give anything away in case there is anyone left who hasn't see the movie!) and the implications that ensue are greatly entertaining in this movie.The characters are key for me. A young and think Alec Baldwin plays Jack Ryan. The movie has based on the first Jack Ryan novel by John Clancy.Sean Connery plays Soviet sub commander Marko Ramius who "goes rogue", Scott Glenn has a great performance as a US submarine commander. James Earl Jones does credit to his small time on screen as Vice Admiral James Greer and Sam Neill with more time in his role as Ramius' first office Vasily Borodin.One of the things I find humorous throughout the movie is Connery's Scottish accent whether speaking English *or* Russian. Connery will be Connery.Since The Hunt For Red October first came out and over all my viewings the experience has changed. I pick up on little details I'd missed before, some of the special effects feel a little dated, all the actors see more starkly younger. Little things over time that make the 10th viewing quite different than the second or third. Through all this time and change in perception I still like the movie and I think that says a lot about the strength of the story and acting.For over a decade since I bought the DVD I continue to enjoy The Hunt For Red October. I continue to watch it at least once a year. Any movie that brings me back more than twice is a 5 star movie to me. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

    One of my favorite movies, and so I decided to purchased this digital copy with more modern mastering & higher definition. I love it. And now I can watch it as often as I want.

    "Oh and Petrov- I will try and forget your comments when I present my reports." lololololol.

    Perhaps the late Sean Connery's greatest role he ever played.

    Great Movie
  • Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2015
    The movie is based on the book by Tom Clancy and if you haven't read it you should! The movie was released in March of 1990, had a budget of 30 million and was directed by John McTeirnan. The story starts with Jack Ryan (played by Alec Baldwin) our main character who works for the CIA but is living in England and working with British Intelligence. Jack has some information he got from the British about a new Russian sub that he takes back to America to share with James Earl Jones' character Admiral Greer at CIA headquarters. This new Russian sub has a silent propulsion system that would make it almost undetectible to US forces which is kind of a bad thing when it happens to be a nuclear missile sub (the Red October) capable of wipeing out the entire eastern seaboard. As Jack is enlisting the aide of a naval engineer to study the info he has it is learned that the Red October has put to sea. Tensions rise to maximum in the military chiefs of staff meeting at the White House as they fear that the Russians could easily make a surprise nuclear strike with this sub and turn America into a large hot pocket with cheese. I thought Alec Baldwin and James Earl Jones were well cast and did great jobs in their parts. I didn't like Sean Connery or Sam Neil as Russians even though both are fine actors and have put in superb performances in other movies for example Connery's performances as James Bond is and always will be one of the best. I also liked him in Medicine Man and Highlander but I couldn't get into him in this movie. Peter Firth who plays the October's political officer rattles off more Russian dialogue in the scene where he and Connery are opening the boats orders than Connery did in the whole movie and he's no more Russian than Connery is. I expect a little more from Sean... Sam Neil is just as unconvincing as a Russian. I loved Neil in Jurassic Park, he was excellent. Loved him in The Final Conflict as Damien Thorne as well but he just wasn't right in this movie. This movie is from 1990 and you'll see old technology like noisy dot matrix printers on the American attack sub, corded phones and people wearing glasses with very large lenses hahahahahaha. In conclusion, if you want to see a much younger and better looking Alec Baldwin in the role that launched him to stardom this is the movie. Other than that read the book, it had a lot of details that made the story way better than was conveyed in this movie. By the way, Tom Clancy passed away in 2013. The bluray version has excellent picture quality and sound. This movie is a good "submarine" movie. It had some great looking models, the special effects were good for the time and and aside from the complaints I mentioned earlier Alec Baldwin, James Earl Jones, Sean Connery and Sam Neil all put in some great performances.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Le deuxième meilleur livre de Tom Clancy adapté au cinéma.
    Reviewed in France on January 4, 2025
    Ce film est un classique. « La Chasse à l'Octobre Rouge » est librement inspiré d'un fait réel survenu en 1975. Le roman s'inspire de la mutinerie de la frégate soviétique Storozhevoy, au cours de laquelle un groupe d'officiers et de marins, dirigé par Valery Sablin, a tenté de renverser le gouvernement soviétique. Si les détails et l'issue de la mutinerie diffèrent du récit fictif de « La chasse à l'octobre rouge », le thème central, à savoir la défection d'un officier de marine soviétique à bord d'un sous-marin à propulsion nucléaire, reste similaire. Cela dit, les différences résident dans le fait que le navire était un sous-marin dans le roman, que l'objectif n'était pas simplement la défection vers l'Ouest et que l'issue de la mutinerie a été, en réalité, la répression de la mutinerie par les autorités soviétiques, et que Sablin et ses complices ont été exécutés. Clancy a donc pris la vérité et en a fait un grand roman. Le plus beau, c'est qu'Hollywood a fait de ce grand roman un film classique ! Les principaux acteurs sont bien connus, comme Sean Connery, Alec Baldwin, Scott Glenn, Sam Neil et James Earth Jones (la voix de Dark Vador). Avec une telle équipe d'acteurs, un scénario captivant et des décors réalistes, ce film reste un classique à voir absolument.

    Rezension: Jagd auf Roter Oktober auf 4K Blu-ray – Spannung in Referenzqualität

    Der packende Thriller Jagd auf Roter Oktober aus dem Jahr 1990, basierend auf Tom Clancys Bestseller, ist ein zeitloser Klassiker des Kalten Krieges.

Die 4K UHD Blu-ray hebt diesen Meilenstein des Thriller-Genres auf ein neues technisches Niveau.

    Technische Highlights

    Das 4K-Remaster liefert ein beeindruckendes Bild mit deutlich verbesserten Details und klareren Texturen, besonders in den engen, atmosphärischen Innenräumen der U-Boote. Die HDR-Optimierung verstärkt die düstere, kalte Farbpalette und verleiht den Unterwasseraufnahmen eine erstaunliche Tiefe und Plastizität.

    Der DTS-HD-Master-Audio-Soundtrack sorgt für einen kraftvollen Klang, von den tiefen, dröhnenden Geräuschen der U-Boote bis hin zu den präzisen Dialogen. Die Soundkulisse verstärkt die beklemmende Atmosphäre perfekt.

    Ein Film, der bleibt

    Jagd auf Roter Oktober besticht auch heute noch durch seinen intelligenten Plot, seine dichte Spannung und die glaubwürdige Darstellung eines gefährlichen Katz-und-Maus-Spiels unter Wasser. Sean Connery und Alec Baldwin liefern herausragende Leistungen, die den Film tragen.

    Bonusmaterial für Fans

    Die 4K Blu-ray enthält interessantes Bonusmaterial wie Making-of-Features und Kommentare, die Einblicke in die Produktion und den historischen Kontext bieten.

    Fazit

    Die 4K UHD Blu-ray von Jagd auf Roter Oktober ist ein Muss für Thriller-Fans und Liebhaber klassischer Filme. Die hervorragende Bild- und Tonqualität sowie das spannende Bonusmaterial machen diese Ausgabe zur ultimativen Version eines zeitlosen Klassikers.
