Arctic Armageddon

Never laughed so hard at a thriller before. It was so pathetic that one couldn't help but laugh.

Most times when I watch tubi, I expect to watch something of value. This movie hit rock bottom

I look forward to avoiding any similar productions.

I feel for the actors. I am certain that they are not eager to let their friends and family know that they were a part of this movie

The only thing that I looked forward to were the commercials.

When I review a movie I usually see something positive in it and rate it above the average, but this movie has driven me to desperation. I could not rate it high that one.

I almost gave this a 3 star, even hoped for a 4, but that was just the first five minutes of the movie. After that it was clear that everyone associated with this movie is clueless in their role. I only gave a 2 because a very few actors and the camera work was worthy.

Where to start?

The script is AWFUL. Not only the words, but the staging (the director takes responsibility for some of this also), the events and responses, everything. And the actors, could you be more stiff? Admittedly I would have had a hard time delivering those lines knowing how awful the script was.

Throughout the movie the viewer constantly loses attention, wondering why they do/say what they did, events/actions that don't make sense, places that don't look real, often don't even look like they fit.

And whomever was responsible for stages (writer, director, and production team) find other jobs. One example, and my biggest gripe (of many)... have you never seen a submarine movie?

A little advice, look up the term "suspension of disbelief". Its key to the art.

The first moment they show the navy sub that plays a central role in the movie, they show what looks like an auditorium, with a vaulted ceiling, not even a pretense of the tight spaces of a real submarine, and the cheesiest mock-up of radar stations I've ever seen. Then the Commanding Officer calls a woman "Commander" and "XO" (Executive Officer) who is wearing the proper insignia of a First Class Petty Officer (E-6), which is beyond stupid. It seems like they did it as a joke to see if anyone would notice. Every moment looks like something completely different from a submarine CO giving orders to his crew.

All the other comments about the acting are really true. The acting is Mark-Hamill-as-Luke-Skywalker-in-the-first-Star-Wars-movie bad. I can't understand what inspired the 7 out of 10 rating, but it's certainly one of the worst movies you should spare yourself the trouble of watching.

Worst movie I've seen in a long time. The use Cheap effects and no excitement at all ( very low budget movie). The helicopter scenes were so fake that they looked like they were made with model helicopters. Icebergs looked like cardboard or ice cubes from the freezer and protective suits looked like covid protection suits From 5 minutes into the movie I wondered if I should turn it off, but I kept watching to see how bad it could get and I was not disappointed. This was bad from the first minute. Must have been cheap to produce. No and no. Don't waste your time watching it. If you don't want to watch it to find out how bad it is.

Having been in the military I tend to get a little critical over technical inaccuracies. This movie was one of the worst I've seen. On the submarine, haircuts, uniforms, rank structure, and submarine features were so far off to be laughable. The submarine's executive officer (XO) wore the rank of a first class petty officer a mid-level enlisted grade ... not an officer. The helmsman wore the rank of a seaman, but referred to as a petty officer. It was inferred that the submarine had to frequently surface to exchange air. Torpedoes were launched through what appeared to me the missile launch tubes. Decisions at the Pentagon were being called by the Secretary of Homeland Security rather than the Secretary of Defense. I could go on an on but I'd advise skipping this one unless viewing for the comic effect.
