Historically Inaccurate but Entertaining

Rating: Null/10 (23 April 2000)

I'm not going to waste time explaining to you what the movie is about or how it's completeley inaccurate in regards to who and when the first enigma was captured. U-571 comes close to being the "Saving Private Ryan" of WWII submarine films. Loud and noisy, it gives you a sense of what submariners at that time must have gone through. I wasn't really trying to spot any inaccuracies in the film. I was caught up by the action and suspense and even though the ending was cliche and predictable, I enjoyed the ride.
