I didn't hear any of you schmucks complain about movies changing history when Tarantino did it.

History is rewritten to cater to the American idea that they single handed won World War II. If you don't care about actual history then by all means see and enjoy. If you do then stay as far away from this as possible.

As it turns out, I care very little about submarines or the wacky adventures that arise within them.

I've seen worse, I guess. Yes, that's the strongest praise I can muster up.

The movie itself is enjoyable to watch, but it is damaged by its typically blatant steam-rollered version of history. Absolutely nothing at all covered in the film actually happened, it seems to have been designed just for the American public to gloat over. It provides some good action none the less and represents life upon a submarine well however. I never even noticed Jon Bon Jovi was in this until I came here to rate it.

Pretty bland and generic submarine film. It's suspenseful, but for all the reasons submarine films are.

Not good, but mildly diverting thriller. It has it's moments, but it also seems too tame.

Not even paying attention to the whole history aspect of this, I found it engaging.

Old-time WWII adventure in the new-fangled pumped-up and frenzied style. The pugilistic camera keeps charging at the actors' chests, hammering them in the jaw, locking them in a clinch -- and the actors all look as if they are straining to lift a five-hundred-pound barbell, their eyes popping, veins bulging, sweat streaming.

Slightly entertaining but nothing special. It is forgettable and has no character development at all, but the acting is solid and there are some nice action scenes.

Smart and dramatic action! Submarines could not shoot torpedos at each other underwater during the war and uncovering enigma was not an American endeavour - but we will forgive these follies! Now how historical would you find a German destroyer trying to sink a US -led submarine with a multi-racial crew? Best is to enjoy it and have a Tarantinoesque approach to historical accuracy.

Talented cast is wasted on a boring and underwritten script.
