With little character development on paper, the narrative finds victory through Hanks' patient physical performance and the craftsmanship within the battles.

| Original Score: B- | Feb 12, 2021

If this is all Tom Hanks imagines a Tom Hanks vehicle to be, he greatly underestimates himself.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 22, 2020

Greyhound is the lead ship and Krause is the overall commander.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 28, 2020

Yes, it is taught, brisk, and focused, but I didn't learn enough about the characters... I would have felt more emotionally invested.

| Jul 22, 2020

It's a simple and straightforward movie - rather than relying on thrills and scares, Greyhound is interested in the intricate work of fighting on the high seas - but if that's what you're in the mood for, it's thoroughly satisfying.

Schneider and Hanks keep Greyhound compelling through detail, and through the sheer power of Hanks' furrowed, determined brow.

| Jul 11, 2020

The role brings out another in the Tom Hanks gallery of seemingly unremarkable men rising to meet extraordinary challenges.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 11, 2020

When a torpedo careens right off the side of the Keeling at one point, the action beat stands out from the shapeless cacophony of screams and explosions that "Greyhound" substitutes in lieu of coherent naval warfare.

| Original Score: C- | Jul 11, 2020

Schneider can't figure out how to elevate it beyond [his] minimal intentions, and Greyhound starts to become numbing in its tactics.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 10, 2020

"Dunkirk" or "1917," this is not. But as a window onto an under-acknowledged arena of combat and a starting point for armchair military historians, "Greyhound" is seaworthy enough to make it across.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jul 10, 2020

The pacing is a thing of beauty, and rarely relents - think Crimson Tide meets Mad Max: Fury Road.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 10, 2020

An old-fashioned [movie], in a way, though effective if you're in the mood for a straightforward, tense journey-through-hostile-territory yarn.

| Jul 10, 2020

Watch Greyhound with a dad you love, or in memory of a dad you love. And know that there's no shame in having dad taste.

| Jul 10, 2020

A patriotic, proudly square tale of WW2 courage under fire that rarely rises above standard issue escapism, except for the soulful complexity Tom Hanks brings to the role of a naval commander and man of faith on the verge of losing faith in himself.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 10, 2020

Like a sailing vessel, Greyhound benefits from the sleekness of its design and its characters' lack of baggage, both literal and emotional.

| Jul 10, 2020

It belongs on the big screen.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 10, 2020

The movie is really about risk assessment under the direst circumstances, the responsibility for other people's lives, the wear on the spirit, the resolve to go on.

| Original Score: B+ | Jul 10, 2020

It's that rare thing -- a war film driven by abhorrence of war, rather than bloodlust or jingoism. Hemingway's definition of courage as grace under pressure has never been clearer.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 10, 2020

What's here is fleetingly thrilling.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 9, 2020

Compared to Hanks' other war-themed efforts, Greyhound is a conspicuously modest affair -- nicely shot, featuring a stirring musical score (by Blake Neely) and telling its story with spartan efficiency.
