Mostly, it's your standard WWII submarine flick (they are legion) until
the story takes a turn for the interesting, and the movie really grabs
your attention, until by the end it's finally...your standard WWII
submarine flick. Got that? Nevertheless, I must admit that the
action/battle sequences are top notch, and Matthew McConaughey gives a
first rate performance as the would-be leader of men. If you can't get
your hands on Das Boot, this will do.
