Product Details


Product Description

Amazon.ca

Kelsey Grammer stars as the captain of a rust-bucket submarine who is fighting for his career by proving his skills in a contest against far more sophisticated ships. Rob Schneider provides comic support as an uptight ensign, and Lauren Holly plays an officer who has to fight her own will-they-accept-me-because-I'm-a-woman anxieties. The film didn't do well at the box office, but it is actually pretty funny, Grammer is enjoyable, and the above-the-water/below-the-water action sequences are as good as any in most submarine films. --Tom Keogh

Product Description

Kelsey Grammer Sails From Tv'S "Frasier" To The Big Screen In This Screwball Comedy Co-Starring Lauren Holly And Rip Torn. Veteran Skipper John Dodge (Grammer) Will Never Be A Textbook Officer, But He'S A Brilliant Seaman Who'S Always Wanted To Command A Nuclear Submarine. Unfortunately, Admiral Graham (Bruce Dern) Would Rather Sink The Fleet Than Give Dodge His Own Boat. So Dodge Is Given The Helm Of A Diesel-Powered Ww2 Sub Crewed By A Collection Of Maladjusted, Mistake-Prone Misfits. Then He'S Tagged "The Enemy" In A Crucial War Game, And Ordered To Take On The U.S. Navy'S Best. Batten Down The Hatches For Unstoppable Hilarity That Takes 200 Years Of Naval Tradition¿And Throws It All Overboard!

5.0 out of 5 stars a unique comedy July 11 2004
Format:DVD
Down Periscope is hilarious from beginning to end. It is one of those movies that has a serious plot invaded by superb humor. I laughed almost every couple of minutes while watching this movie. Down Periscope is one humorous movie that anyone can pretty much agree on. What is amazing to me is that this movie did not do well at the box office. I definately think it was good enough to spawn a sequel.

5.0 out of 5 stars Down Periscope Jan 1 2013
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a very funny movie in a slap stick kind of humour way. It appeals to all ages and is just fun to watch. It looks like Kelsey Grammer had way too much fun making this movie. Our family thoroughly enjoys it every time we watch it.

Though this has a Canadian "PG" rating, frankly I don't know why. I would rate this G, though maybe my Naiveté means I might be missing something, but then so too would the kids...right? This was just fun, and funny and though a bit ridiculous, the story seemed plausible...and was well executed.
Were the parameters of the story ever true, and they very well could be, one can easily see the verse "Except the lord keep the city, the watchmen watch in vain" coming to play. But that's the doomsday watch in me coming to the fore. The Movie was a gas, and I enjoyed it from the beggining right to and including the credits! I tend to stick with the older movies because they tend to be more clean, but frankly I haven't enjoyed a newer movie this much in years!
This is a keeper.

Some of the "realities" of navy "games". Who been there, knows why. A nice funny navy story about team spirit. Enjoy

If you're reading this, you likely already know how much fun this movie is. One of the few I'll watch many times. But the DVD job here is mediocre at best. Read more
