5 out of 5 stars ...........WW2 Submarine Warfare in the Atlantic [1943]...............2007-06-11

.....Here's WW2 Hollywood at its best....try to remember it's 1943; not nowaday...Tyrone Power-Dana Andrews-Anne Baxter-Jimmy Gleason-Minor Watson and Dame May Whitty, comprise a solid cast to put this film over...this Navy flick hit the mark as you left the theatre thinking we ARE going to WIN this war afterall...1943 was a pivotal war year for the USA...this movie is discussed pretty well by other critics in here, so be it...I could find no fault with the beautiful/primary technicolor [never better print] or the predictable screen/play...if any scene captured my fancy...it was the perfect train/Mayflower hotel scene[s] with the slick/glib Tyrone Power on the make for the enticingly, beautiful Anne Baxter who had a penchant for sexiness with her clothes on...now that is an accomplished actress...catch her in another movie ten years later, "Carnival Story" and you tell me if she is sultry/captivating or what??...you won't be disappointed in this DVD...it's America at its wartime BEST!!.....SSGT CHRIS SARNO-USMC FMF

5 out of 5 stars Lesser Known, Still Exciting.......2007-06-01

Perhaps because it is not so well known, I found this WW2 sub film intriguing from the git-go and recommend it highly to all submarine enthusiasts. Like most such films, it is weak on technical information but that's pretty much the way it goes, and still I recommend it highly.

5 out of 5 stars Crash Dive.......2007-01-15

Received in the time promised. Have not viewed this DVD yet but I am sure it will meet my expectations.

3 out of 5 stars stick to the bombs & avoid the kissy scenes.......2006-08-03

a ww2 potboiler with the classic love triangle where the 2 best friends both love the same gal, highlighted by some excellent battle sequences wherein the crew of a single submarine manages to sneak into a secret nazi base and blow up an entire fleet. the progenitor of movies like "guns of navarone", its a fun watch when they keep it to the war.

4 out of 5 stars A recruitment drive with a love interest.......2006-01-31

Lt. Ward Stewart (Tyrone Power) is in love with PT boasts he can drop depth charges on sneaky German U-boats that use lifeboats as ship bait. His Uncle Adm. Bob Stewart (Minor Watson) needs an exec on a U.S. Sub and talks him into doing his duty.

Meanwhile the sub commander Dewey Connors (Dana Andrews) is waiting for one more stripe so he can be worthy of popping the question of marriage to his girl, Jean Hewlett (Anne Baxter, `Nefretiri' in "The Ten Commandments" (1956).)

You guessed it while Dewey is away Bob discovers Jean and beats him to the question. Jean says sure; she just forgot to tell ether of the men about the other.

One of the interesting things about this movie is that instead of good guy - bad guy, both officers are good guys and it takes both personalities to accomplish the missions.

They do go out of their way to make the Germans sneaky and do extraordinary feats with their sub and commandos.

    5 out of 5 stars Counter Measures.......2003-03-10

    This movie is a great undiscovered movie hit. With the hard hiting excitement you want. This movie has great combination of top gun/ Hunt for Red October. I highly recommend this movie to any action packed film enthusiast.

    1 out of 5 stars Dang, this movie is baaad!.......2002-04-11

    Ok, I should have rented this movie from the library first before wasting my money on this stink burger...

    The sub was too big and there was too much walking space, they ripped off too many scenes from Crimson Tide and Hunt for the Red October which were far better movies then this one. I strongly recomend you buy something else like Crimson Tide or Das Boot if you like submarine movies.

    1 out of 5 stars Just plain Bad.......2002-01-23

    I have seen some pretty cheesy movies with bad acting, but Counter Measures has to be in the top five worst films of all time.

    The story line, which has some great potential, is completely destroyed by the poor acting ability of the cast. Dudikoff can't even salute correctly - and he is supposed to be a SEAL??? Alexander Keith, while very attractive, does a very poor job convincing the viewer that she is a military solder. As for her role, I have heards better screams out 1950's era b-movies.

    The scenes inside the sub where just as bad. Was that a Russian sub or the Starship Enterprise. I've seen houses with less room than the sub had.

    The Special FX were attrocious, I've seen more realistic explosions using green plastic army men and firecrackers.

    All in all just a very bad film and a complete waste of time.

    5 out of 5 stars Wow!.......1999-11-17

    This is a great movie. A lot better than the frist, Crash Dive. I highly recomend seeing this. I would really like to see Michael Dudikoff in a bigger picture.

    4 out of 5 stars wow, this actually had characters.......1999-08-15

    okay, okay, so you don't expect a lot from this sort of fare. So be prepared for something a little differant. Dudikoff plays a coward...until the end of course. His co-star, Alexander Keith is excellent! Hard to imagine that they are still making Cynthia Rothrock movies with a woman (yes, a woman named Alexander) as tough AND sexy as Alexander on the scene. She is a much better actress that Ms. Rothrock too. Good action but the submarine interiors look more like a space ship (Anyone whos ever been on a submarine knows that there aren't a whole lot of winding corridors or open spaces) On the whole this one is pretty good but, of course, it is no Das Boot.
