Customer Reviews

“Here's to you, my friend, and you, my friend.”

During World War II, a U-boat and a destroyer were in a cat-and-mouse situation until the end. The question is, who is the cat, and who is the mouse? They use standard clichés and extraordinary tactics; however, there is no need for anything supernatural or far-fetched to hold your attention. It is a battle of wits and wills between the Commanders of both vessels. We are there as they both sweat out time or take chances. For the most part, everyone is speaking English, so you will not have to strain your eyes to read the small print at the bottom of the screen. Being made before CGI, we will watch some battles and scenes made with the use of models. Yes, you have seen this story portrayed again in such classics as “Das Boot” (1982). What is more interesting is that even the same dialogue is played out in the movie “Star Trek II – The Wrath of Khan” (1982). You will find this movie worth repeated viewing.
