Amazon.com essential video:
Before Harrison Ford assumed the mantle of playing Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan hero in Patriot Games, Alec Baldwin took a swing at the character in this John McTiernan film and hit one to the fence. If less instantly sympathetic than Ford, Baldwin is in some respects more interesting and nuanced as Ryan, and drawing comparisons between both actors' performances can make for some interesting postmovie discussion. That aside, The Hunt for Red October stands alone as a uniquely exciting adventure with a fantastic costar: Sean Connery as a Russian nuclear submarine captain attempting to defect to the West on his ship. Ryan must figure out his true motives for approaching the U.S. McTiernan (Predator, Die Hard) made an exceptionally handsome movie here with action sequences that really do take one's breath away. --Tom Keogh

The Hunt for Red October (Special Collector's Edition)
Paramount should be ashamed of themselves. The picture quality is atrocious. DO NOT BUY THIS MOVIE IN DVD FORMAT! Hopefully they haven't screwed up the Blue Ray edition.

One of my favorite movies, Sean Connery is excellent as the russian commander and Alec Baldwin does Jack Ryan better than Harrison Ford(Patriot Games). loads of stars in this flick, great story and all the action sequences are filmed to a tee. Highly Recommended for action movie enthuisiats....

The Hunt For Red October is an excellent cold war film supported with great acting by Sean Connery and Alec Baldwin! This film was an excellent adaptation of the Tom Clancy novel about a group of Russian officers trying to defect to the United States in the newest Soviet Submarine. This is not the standard Bond film and should not be expected as one. It is a little more realistic spy film that you could believe actually happened. Both Sean and Alec put in excellent performances as the defecting Russian captain ... Read More

This is one of the movies that I already owned in DVD. When it became available in Blu-Ray, I bought it hoping that the superior capability of Blu-Ray would make the purchase worth it. Well, it was. The depth of color was much better, almost 3-D in some scenes. Well worth the purchase.
