Terrible science (e.g. sinking ice) and terrible plot and dialogue but the magnificent Seaview saves the film. It was the sub which went on to star in the popular TV series in the next decade, a series which had that famous theme music.
In in the right mood this is an enjoyable film. Watch the secretary, Barbara Eden, totter around the deck in high heels taking shorthand at every opportunity
Only for Dick Emery fans really. Daft story but I laughed heartily several times. The girls' bottoms theme is very 1972, great.
How run down West London was at that time. There are several for sale signs on view on vast crumbling houses now worth millions.
Be warned, this film has a lot of animal cruelty on view. Not towards the dog. Bears, pigs and a particularly unpleasant scene where the dog torments a tied up cow.
It would never be allowed now. I would say this is not suitable for children in particular.
A subject close to my heart, so very disappointing to get this short amateurish film. Almost laughably poor quality, stock visuals (repeated over the 70 minutes),out of date facts and quotations plucked randomly from the internet.
The Sean Bean- like commentator likes to use the word 'shit'
I don't do reviews but felt I had to here to warn people. Not sure what it is doing on Paradisio's catalogue.
