This ( "The Wolf's Call" ) is an excellent French update of the movie "Failsafe" ...
In a Naval and Submarine context. Very realistic, and very gripping.
I'd give it a 7/10 for that genre.
The movie is way better than it deserves to be. I got the Dr. Strangelove vibes which is basically the same movie as Fail Safe. The Bomber can't take any further orders once it's been ordered to strike. I was kind of hoping that dumbass rule would have been removed from the Nuclear Procedure after Dr. Strangelove made fun of it. Hopefully this film just did it for the tension. Also this picture has a happier ending than both those other films. I also give it 7/10.
