Intrigued by Gerard Butler’s portrayal as the primary protagonist in the 2016 action thriller “London Has Fallen,” which depicts Islamic Jihadists attacking the capital of England, I found myself immersed in the ambiance of the 1980s and 90s. Simply titled, “Hunter Killer,” this 2018 production feels like a time capsule from decades past. It captures the essence of submarine movies, such as “The Hunt for Red October” (1990) and “Crimson Tide” (1995).
