Fictional Harrison Ford quote:

"You want me to do this movie? Did you read that script? I don't really want to do garbage like that. You better fork over 20 million bucks, or I'll do something I like for less."

I'm not saying that K-19 will necessarily be bad, but Harrison Ford movie or not, it doesn't look like there is anything new in there. The story seems familiar, mostly due to being based on fact. A big dramatic action movie that follows a familiar plot. The claustrophobic reality of being trapped in a coffin a the bottom of the sea is bound to be boosted with eye-popping special effects, dramatic acting and a far-fetched and cliché-ridden sub-plot (no pun).
I don't know. Wouldn't that fact-based story be more suitable for a 2 hour NOVA documentary?
