The Wolf's Call

ThrillerActionAdventure

Directed by Antonin Baudry

Shown from the perspective of a young submariner with unusually sensitive hearing and uncannily precise sound recognition. The fate of many often depends on his ability, and one time, whilst highly stressed, he makes a incorrect call which put his entire crew in mortal danger. Trying to regain the confidence of his comrades, he conducts an unauthorised investigation of an apparent plot which, it turns out, risks… From TMDB

    Also, i thought "I could watch a whole movie that's just about Jonesy the sonar guy on the Dallas" &, well, France basically did that — it's called "Le Chant du Loup" (The Wolf's Call) & i guess that'll be my next submarine movie

    I watched The Wolf's Call (Le Chant du Loup) with my son the other day, tonight we're watching The Abyss (1989). My wife: are you two scouring movie history for every single movie with a submarine ever made?!

    There is a French movie about a similar situation : The Wolf's Call. the French military command detects a nuclear missile sent from Russia towards France, they send the order to retaliate to their submarine but ... (I am trying not to spoil the whole movie, people should watch it. Even though it's from 2019 it is very fitting with what is happening now)

    Is this the most French film of all-time? We take a look at the Gallix submarine thriller THE WOLF'S CALL (2019) www.explodinghelicopter.com/2021/02/the-...

    Just finished watching "The Wolf's Call," aka "Crimson Tide en français." Pretty good submarine movie, I imagine the opening sequence where America shrugs at Russia invading Finland and France has to lead the response is taken from Macron's dreams.

    I went into this without knowing much about it and only really wanted to see it given I loved the director's debut film The Wolf's Call. Overall it was excellent, 160 minutes flew by and I'm looking forward to the second part coming out next month #FilmSky

    Movie Review: Just watched 'The Wolf's Call' Excellent submarine adventure movie. As an ex-nuc sub sailor I have to say it had more real life authenticity than most Hollywood movies (though I love those too ;-) White-knuckle suspense and action. Highly recommend. garyalanhenson.blogspot.com

    Is that The Wolf's Call? That was the first thing that came up when I searched "submarine film French". The description sounds interesting.

    Speaking of submarines, one of my favorite military themed movies of late has to be the French movie Le Chant du Loup or The Wolf's Call. Really good movie. Solid story that doesn't rely on the Americans to come save the day. www.imdb.com/title/tt7458...

    Currently watching a French submarine movie called, "Le Chant du Loup" (The Wolf's Call). Sub experts say that parts of the story and military rules are fake or exaggerated. Also, some of the dialogue is cheesy and weak. I don't care. It's as good as "Hunt for Red October" or "Crimson Tide."

    Possibly the most accurate modern Sub movie is "The Wolf's Call". Not completely accurate, but much closer than "Crimson Tide" and "Red October". For earlier periods it has to be "Das Boot" followed closely by "Run Silent Run Deep" (although Burt Lancaster's ego ruined a great book)

    Just watch a movie called The Wolf's Call and it was thoroughly disappointing. It felt like a recruitment movie for the French navy more than anything

    I really enjoyed The Wolf's Call, too, it's almost as cheesy and spectacular! Also, the only film I know with a sonar specialist protagonist

    There is a large section of the film set out of the water, but once back under the waves it moves more quickly, the story putting all its weight on Chanteraide's ears. If you're howling for a slice of Tom Clancy-esque military action cheese, you'll enjoy 'The Wolf's Call'. - Jake Watt Read Jake's full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-the-wolfs-call-suspense-silliness-and-sonar-sweeps

    Me and my kids where shopping for other stuff at FNAC in Geneva, our go to store for not too advanced stuff in audio, video and computer gadgets, when we found this movie. I made a quick search on IMDb and it looked like it might, finally, be a good French made movie. Apart from Louis de Funès comedies that is, I really love most of those. Well, it turned out to be a huge disappointment. I guess I should have checked a bit more. For instance the fact that the oxygen wasting “critics” at Rotten…
