Review

 

A U.S. Navy captain and his crew are just beginning to enjoy 48 hours of leave when they receive word to immediately return to duty. On a top-secret assignment, they must disguise themselves as Nazis and infiltrate a severely damaged Nazi U-boat. Once on board, they are to steal the Nazi’s top-secret decoding device and sink the sub before the Germans catch on to what’s really happening. Their mission is more dangerous and frightening than anything they could have ever imagined, but one which has the power to turn the tide of battle.

“U-571 is exciting!” says Newsweek. Filled with incredible explosions, raging fires and speeding torpedoes, this suspense-filled, action-packed film sets a new standard for high-impact entertainment and features an impressive all-star cast.

Although i agree with what was said about this film that it takes the true story of how britain risked everything to get the enigma. This film is absolutely superb full of high octane packed action, explosions and death defying stunts. If you liked full metal jacket, three kings etc you will love this film.

Customer rating: 1 out of 5 stars Insult to WW2 history

This film is a sham and alters the story of how the British got the enigma machine and helped turn the tide of WW2. It also replaces the true story of British with the USA being the ones who are the heros, just typical of them.
Don't buy lies!
