Rainy Sundays Movie Picks

Crimson Tide is an awesome movie.

If you’re in the mood for an amazing and intense drama, this is definitely a wise choice on a lazy afternoon.

How can you resist watching Gene Hackman and Denzel Washington’s epic battle while facing the unimaginable threat of nuclear war?

Crimson Tide caught me completely off guard when I first saw it.  It’s a memory I look back on fondly.  Sitting at the edge of my seat completely engrossed in the story.  People describe certain movies as white knucklers.  Crimson Tide goes well beyond white knuckles.  It grips your imagination and you’ll be holding your breath before the end.

What I love about the movie is how simple the story really is and how much intensity the filmmakers created regardless.

I pulled out my VHS copy and watched it for the 1083rd time last week.  It’s still an incredible movie.
