U-571

Matthew McConaughey, Harvey Keitel

Nicely done WW2 action flick. Not as good as Das Boot but just a notch or so down from what is easily the best submarine film ever made.

Packed with incident but they still managed to create characters with individual identities. Based on several true cases of efforts by the allies to steal the German enigma secrets. Excellent effects, exaggerated pyro, nice sound design, sets and tracking shots through the sub.
