I really like this movie

It's completely sensationalist but some of the effects are awesome and it's easy watching

Agreed, it's an easy-cheesy film

Got bored after 30 minutes and ended up watching V for Vendeta instead. Equally bad film.

Ended up watching Das Boot till the wee hours which was fantastic

Strangely enough I've had the DVD for 2 years now but never watched it incase it wasn't as good as I remembered it being when it was on BBC2 in 1995(ish). It was as good if not better, it should be the standard on how to build suspense in a film.

Blasphemer!!

I remember watching it on BBC2. Mum loved it and presumably knew about it before it was on TV. She watched it without fail. I watched it as well when I was able to squirm out of going to sodding Judo.

95-96 I think it was yeah.

Is it the full version you've got? The original was so long that they didn't release it on DVD in its entirety to begin with. I think we now have got the full version. Apart from Der Unfall (Downfall) it is the only WW2 movie made from a German perspective and with German actors and is quite brilliant.

I've had a few bad experiences with stuff I remember being great in my youf and being ****e when I watched it as an adult so I was very pleased when it turned out to be tip top last night.

It is very strange watching a film/series where the Germans are the protagonists. There was a point where they were hunting a convoy and I was really gunning for them until I realised they were hunting the kind of Merchant Navy ships that my Great Uncle was on during the war.

Nothing like getting up early after finishing Das Boot at 0230. I'm not sure I can think of anything else that goes on for soooo long whilst keeping 100% of your attention (I don't think strippers last that long).
