My opinion changed!

Rating: 7/10 (4 June 2000)

I must admit to being a little reticent about seeing this at first - due to the fact that I have an irrational hatred of Matthew McConaughey; I just can't stand him! I don't think he can act, he just gets parts because of his pretty boy good looks in cynical money making Hollywood.
OK, I'll not get started on that one ;-)
This is the story of a group of American (as always) war heroes who are given a mission to recover an ENIGMA machine from a stricken Nazi submarine.
Its best features are the special effects, and the performance of Harvey Keitel, despite his particularly awful moustache. Bill Paxton plays the captain well, getting the obvious arrogance needed in such leadership across well.
This is worth a look, and by the end of it I was actually quite enjoying it.
And as for McConaughey ...
