“Invisible. Silent. Stolen.”

A new technologically-superior Soviet nuclear sub, the Red October, is heading for the U.S. coast under the command of Captain Marko Ramius. The American government thinks Ramius is planning to attack. Lone CIA analyst Jack Ryan 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 Ramius, too. The hunt is on!

"The Hunt for Red October" is an extremely well paced film throughout and it never leaves us in any doubt that Jack Ryan's assumptions about captain Marko Ramius are unfailingly correct and if anything could have sapped the interest and made this nothing more than an overlong and water logged exercise in boredom then this is it, so it is amazing this never actually happens and indeed the opposite just happens to be true.
