I should say something intelligent, timely and political.
OTOH, I'm still stuck in 1989 Russia, and two old captains, Alexei Vostrikov and Mikhail Polenin going out for a drink after visiting the cemetary and seeing all their boys, both the live and dead ones. They're maudlin drunks, and woke me several times last night as well as bugging me today.
IOW K-19: The Widowmaker didn't suck as badly as I expected it to. The end is beautiful. The middle is a bit soggy. And the beginning is slow. The visuals were well done, esp. the gorgeous, eerie and deadly Chrenkov radiation in the reactor. (It does look just like that IRL) The accents were just another movie device, and (I suspect)the effort of maintaining the accent kept Ford from his usual mumbling. And they both look great as old men. (Neeson bears an odd resemblence to a fuller-faced Leonard Nimoy. I suspect it's the glasses)
25 more minutes. then i can go home and sleep
