A very nice comedy about how things certainly were not and didn't go during the war. A true submariner would probably go crazy laughing at the scenes in which the heroes demonstrate what can (but rather cannot) be done with an underwater vessel. Less funny, however, is the Americans' attempt to manipulate history. It is well known that they did not acquire Enigma, but rather their British allies, and it is also well known that this did not take place under similarly lively circumstances. If you want a raw WAR drama that has everything, check out Petersen's Das Boot. Still, Mostow's film is excellent in terms of craftsmanship and an action affair, which, if not taken so seriously and heroically, could have been even better. + 1/2 for Harvey Keitel!

This is definitely not the worst submarine movie, that dubious honor goes to the film In Enemy Hands, but it's also not very good. However, if you are a fan of popcorn flicks, it might sit well with you. There is some nice shooting and explosions, the good guys always have better aim and more luck, and the broken submarine performs acrobatic tricks - basically, it's simply a blast. However, if you prefer complex realistic dramas, steer clear of U-571. For me, it's just too shallow and silly. Overall impression: 40%.
