The internationally produced The Inside Man was inspired by a true story. In 1981, a Soviet submarine ran aground on the coast of Sweden. The sub was carrying a hush-hush laser search device, which promptly vanished. In this 1984 recreation of the incident, Dennis Hopper is cast as the CIA agent assigned to track down the missing laser. Aided by young assistant Gosta Ekman Jr., Hopper finds himself in a life-and-death struggle with a variety of foreign agents, each with his own agenda. Hardy Kruger co-stars in this rugged adventure yarn. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
No, that's not a Swedish word....this movie had a painfully thin script, and it appears Dennis Hopper will take just about ANY work for a paycheck! Actually, he's only in few scenes.
I cannot recommend this movie unless you are one that can get through a very slow start. To be honest, I quit the movie after 45 minutes of seemingly endless intrigue with no sense of direction. Perhaps it is a good movie in the end. I'll never know because the beginning never weighed anchor.
