This colossal movie was previously only available on DVD as a “bare-bones” edition — a non-anamorphic presentation of the movie, with only a trailer and no right extras. But with this release, the film finally gets the Special Edition treatment!
The special features for this disc will reportedly include a fresh anamorphic transfer, both a Dolby Digital 5.1 sound track AND a DTS 5.1 sound track, an audio commentary by director John McTiernan, a “Beneath the Surface” featurette (original interviews with Alec Baldwin, James Earl Jones, screenwriter Larry Ferguson and producer Mace Neufeld) and the theatrical trailer. Not TONS in the plot of extras, but certainly a lot more than what was on the previous edition.
And for you Tom Clancy fans, Paramount has also announced “The Jack Ryan Special Edition DVD Collection” for release on the same day this disc is released, May 6th. The box spot will include the unique Special Editions of “The Hunt for Red October”, “Patriot Games”, “Determined and Prove Effort”, and “The Sum Of All Fears”… each with novel bonus material, novel anamorphic transfers and both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 sound. (The movies will be available separately as well as in the 4-disc box status.)

As for my review of “Hunt For Red October”:
Personally… and I’m certain that Harrison Ford fans will lambast me for this… I believe that Alec Baldwin made the best Jack Ryan in the series. At least, he fit my absorb personalized vision of the character as I was reading the book better than Ford did. “The Hunt For Red October” is also far and away the best movie based on a Tom Clancy book and follows the SPIRIT of the book more closely than any of the others. Clear, they took some liberties with the details of the sage, but they got the mountainous strokes absolutely dead-on accurate. What movie based on a thick, highly technical, politically complex book could possibly match it exactly scene for scene???
One of the thrilling things for me when I discover this film is seeing Quick-witted characters actually THINKING their scheme through problems. There are political, personal and technical issues that many of the characters are forced to deal with, and it is a joy to examine — for example — Alec Baldwin’s Jack Ryan using his MIND and not his fists to rep into and out of situations. This movie is defenitely a thinking man’s action film.

But that is not to say that this isn’t an spellbinding movie with lots of situation twists, and some of the best submarine battles ever set into a movie. And to top all that off, you accept Sean Connery AND the underrated Sam Neil as the “villains”, and James Earl Jones in a pleasant supporting role. This is also directed by one of the best action-film directors working today, John “Die Hard” McTiernan (although I don’t know WHAT he was thinking with the “Rollerball” remake) . What more could you want in an action film?
SOME TRIVIA: Star Inch fans recall ticket, that is Gates (Dr. Beverly Crusher) McFadden in a blink-and-you-miss-it cameo role as Jack Ryan’s wife at the beginning of the movie. … People in and around Portland, Oregon may be keen to know that the “Russian” submarine that breaches the water towards the raze of the film is actually an American submarine called the USS Blueback which is retired and on permanent expose for public tours at OMSI, the Portland science building.
Now this is a movie worth watching. “The Hunt for Red October” has such a righteous casting with actors Sean Connery, Alec Baldwin, Scott Glenn, Sam Neill, James Earl Jones, Richard Jordan, Joss Ackland, and more.
Under the insist of Captain Marko Ramius (Sean Connery), a technologically profitable Soviet nuclear sub, the “Red October”, is heading for the U.S. soar. When the American government hears this, they immediately jump to the conclusion that the Russians are planning to attack the United States. But then strangely enough, they obtain out that the entire Russian naval and air commands are trying to obtain the “Red October”: there orders, to sink the submarine! The Americans are told that they mediate that Ramius is indignant and that he’s going to shoot nuclear missiles into America so of course, the American government agrees to aid the Soviet hunt the “Red October” to terminate him. But a lone CIA analyst, Jack Ryan (Alec Baldwin), has a different plan that he thinks that Ramius is planning to defect but he has only a small time to be able to present it with the reluctant assist of Cammander Bart Mancuso (Scott Glenn) . The hunt is on!!
On my list of accepted movies ever, “The Hunt for Red October” measures up to such submarine movies such as “Speed Mute, Rush Deep” with Clark Gable and Burt Lancaster and “U-571″ with Matthew McConaughey. This movie is based on Tom Clancy’s bestseller and you have to admit, he was a genius in writing this yarn.
I savor the acting done by not only Sean Connery and Alec Baldwin, but also of Sam Neill as Vasily Borodin, Scott Glenn as the Commander, and naturally James Earl Jones as Admiral James Greer. My accepted parts are probably the very last 40 minutes (of which I won’t drawl what happens because I don’t want to give anything away to anyone who hasn’t watched this movie yet) and the parts where National Security Advisotor Jeffrey Pelt (Richard Jordan) and Amabassador Andrei Lysenko (Joss Ackland) and talkint to each other. And the whole movie has very subtle humor which I like.
Watch “The Hunt for Red October” and if you like it, I also recommend other submarine movies such as “Hasten Mute, Rush Deep” and “U-571″.
