Predictable, egotistical American stuff - but good action!

Rating: Null/10 (13 July 2002)

I really liked this movie because it was full of suspense and action. The reason why I say it's predictable is because of all the obvious hints given near the beginning of the movie! For example, when the guy is talking about what happens when a sub goes down more than 500 feet, you just know that the crew is going to be forced to dive to dangerous depths. I say U-571 is egotistical because the Americans like to think that they single-handedly won WWII, and they make this point even clearer in the movie by giving themselves credit for something the british navy did! I would give this movie a 6/10 purely for great sound and effects.
