Editorial Review:

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

Not everyone's cup of tea I'm sure, but this movie has a great cast and is solidly funny throughout. Kelsey Grammer is perfect in this role.

I made the mistake of watching this on an airplane ride, (I must admit to a loud cackle of a laugh) and had to control my laughter. It's not academy award material, but it IS great entertainment!

I really liked the way this comedy hit you in subtle ways without trying too hard, and without continuous sight gags.
Kelsey Grammer does an excellent job as the down-and-out Lt.

A great way to relax and have a good laugh. The Captain and his assorted mixed-bag of crew members come together during the ensuing mock trials of securing entrance into two 'guarded' Atlantic Naval Bases with an 'outdated rust-bucket' of a submarine. While a 'higher ranking' officer tries to prevent this happening, the Captain has been given directions to "think like a pirate" by a still higher ranked officer. Highly recommend this movie for a sit-down-popcorn evening with family or friends.

I loved this movie, and find myself watching it over and over. It was very funny, far better than the so-called box-office hits. Down periscope is simple humor full of fun. Don't forget 9-11, showed us that the "That could never happen", can.
Lt Commander Dodge, and his very misfit crew, out manuver his former skipper, that gave him a review that would have ended his (Cdr. Dodge's)career. It has vilians in Bruce Dern, and in some ways Dodge's own XO, portrayed by Rob Schiender and heroes ... Read More
