Kursk / The Command (2018)

Thomas Vinterberg’s direction is (as usual) tight and smart, and Matthias Schoenaerts is wonderful as always. But although this is a tense story, and a bit of a nail-biter, I can’t say I enjoyed it all that much.
Perhaps the strangest thing about this movie is that it is populated entirely by European actors from Belgium, Sweden, France, Germany, and the UK who are all speaking English to tell the story of a Russian submarine.
