Review: (#1) This outlandish and color-overpowering design has very little going for it except eye strain. (#2) A little more interesting with the sunset and the subarmine, but it’s not terribly impressive. (#3) This is the prior, but with the three stars of the film front-and-center. It doesn’t embellish, nor does it detract. (#4) A series of character posters for a film that a) doesn’t need them and b) can’t make them look interesting. (#8) A pulled-back view of the second design without any people. It is interesting, but forgettable.

Review: A pale imitation of all the great submarine films of the past, this drama plays out about as you would expect and then leaves the viewer wondering why they would even need to see the film.
