"Black Sea" is a blue-collar "The Hunt for Red October," a crudely crafted "Crimson Tide." It doesn't transcend the tired submarine genre, but the film inhabits it with a greasy, rugged aplomb. Adopting the thick Scottish brogue of director Kevin Macdonald, Jude Law stars as an ex-Navy captain named Robinson. After he's fired from an ocean salvage corporation, another laid-off employee presents him with a literally golden opportunity — a Nazi U-boat laden with Russian gold buried beneath the Black Sea.
