High on action but low on realism. And don't even start about logical errors, the obivous being [spoiler] how they reach the German boat from America faster then the Germans did from France with a head start. [/spoiler] To be fair, the movie does not claim to be historically accurate but it was the British who captured and decoded Enigma. I don't think there even was any US involvement. The whole plot could have come straight from a 50s war movie, pure fabrication with total US heroism. Shame, because technically this is not bad at all.

_U-571_ is a fantastic WWII movie that balances a compelling plot with a fair amount of historical context and entertainment. While it may not be the most accurate representation of the events it's based on, it still provides a gripping narrative that immerses you in the wartime atmosphere. It successfully blends history with thrilling action, making it a satisfying watch for both history buffs and fans of wartime dramas.

Semi-decent action scenes, though not very deep (pardon the pun) on character development, plot, or realism, and I’m pretty sure Mickey Mouse could have written a script with fewer cliches. 5/10

Can you forgive the film makers their sins?

Once in a while there comes a time when a film lover has their patience snapped, that we can't surely accept in this instance that poetic license is OK as an excuse purely for Hollywood to make a piece of entertainment. U-571 pretty much rips up the his More

I usually enjoy submarine movies. Loads of action and precious little romance to clutter up the thing. On that front, this delivers quite well as Matthew McConaughey ("Tyler") and Bill Paxton ("Dahlgren") lead a daring mission to capture the enigma coding machine from an U-Boat. Thanks to a broken d More
