The Wolf's Call (2019)
Written & directed
by Antonin Baudry this film stars Francois Civil, Omar Sy, Mathieu
Kassovitz and Reda Kateb. As Europe and Russia clash French submarine
forces are ordered to make a retaliatory nuclear strike.
Owing more than a
little to The Hunt for the Red October (1990) this film is a pretty
decent thriller apart from a couple of moments that are a little
stretching things. The action is gripping, with the characters
grappling with a serious dilemma and it is fascinating to see how
France views itself on a world stage. Not a great film due to a few
missteps but certainly a good one.
4/5
