Critic Reviews for Ice Station Zebra
All Critics (14) | Top Critics (1) | Fresh (5) | Rotten (9)
An uncharacteristically weak thriller-actioner from the talented director John Sturges.
Hokey but lavishly filmed submarine spy drama.
A conventional Cold War thriller whose flatness keeps it from being as suspenseful as it should be.
Exciting murder-mystery directed by Sturges; Hudson and cast are great.
Sadly, with the exception of 1972's Joe Kidd, Ice Station Zebra marked the end of John Sturges' career as an interesting, innovative director.
Excellent old-style political thriller.
Audience Reviews for Ice Station Zebra
Classic adventure based on a novel by Alistair Maclean. A stellar cast, non-stop action and intrigue and marvelous visuals and sets - the star of which is the tilting submarine inards. One bit always annoys me - the stock footage of Phantom jets pretending to be Migs but its a petty gripe about what is one of my favourite films.

I don't usually like military submarine type movies, but I actually enjoyed this one. The special effects are cool, the story is good and understandable, and I loved McGoohan in this movie, he was awesome. I really liked this movie.
Super Reviewer
A stellar cast, yet the story is oddly spiltted in two episodes who feel a bit disconnected. A shame though because both had potential on their own. Anyway, a good and surprisingly realistic movie. If you are into classic movies, submarines and cold war this one is for you.
