Bear Island (1979)
On the remote Norwegian Bear Island, used as a submarine base by the Germans during WW2, an U.N. scientist sends a distress signal using an emergency NATO frequency and is received by scientific vessel Morning Rose.
Good example how a production with top credentials results into a mediocre product.
Halliwell (no star): "Highly implausible adventure yarn, indifferently presented."
Maltin*1/2: "One of Alistair MacLean's best novels became one of his worst movies...Strong cast, capable director and scenic locations come to naught."
