The Hunt for Red October meets Crimson Tide style review
A brisk survey blends Crimson Tide with The Hunt for Red October and classic submarine cinema. It notes Hackman and Washington dueling for control aboard USS Alabama, a tense path to possible nuclear war, with Tony Scott’s direction and witty Welsh town capers providing contrast.

The Perez Family opens with Felliniesque buoyancy
Roger Ebert reviews The Perez Family as a romantic comedy about Cuban refugees arriving in Miami. Alfred Molina and Marisa Tomei portray Juan Raul Perez and Dottie Perez, two strangers who pose as a family to gain sponsorship. Their scheme clashes with reality as a Cuban prison escape story blends with screwball tone and hopes for reunion with Carmela Perez.
