Das Boot for beginners!

Rating: 6/10 (22 February 2001)

This is not a bad film, but it could have been much better. The plot, which has a few twists, is the main strength of this film, otherwise most aspects are essentialy average or weak. The pace of the film is fast and the film is never boring, this however means that the characters never get a chance to establish themselves,the acting is average, the music average, the special effects are barely average, and there's a lot of splashing around in the studio's water tank. Higher production values could have enhanced what is an enjoyable but highly flawed film.
