Janak D @62Orka Jul 6 A bit expactable plot. Not the most thrilling story, but a good watch none the less See more Michael C @Michael71 Jul 3 "U-571" is another case where I am giving a movie a slightly higher rating than it should because of the excellent job by the cast. Cast is not the only thing this World War 2 epic has going for it. The movie does have its share of thrilling action sequences. It is also very well made. I found myself interested in the movie from start to finish which is always a good sign. I especially liked the sequences where U-571 was forced to dive to dangerously low depths to avoid the depth charges dropped by a Nazi destroyer. On the other hand such sequences are the source of my criticism of the movie. I think there were times where those sequences were drawn out more than necessary. Still despite this problem, twenty-six years after its release U-571 is a very well made movie with a very good cast. I still enjoy watching it as I feel it has stood the test of time. Despite the movie's problems I highly recommend it. See more Korben D @Korbendallas506 Mar 24 U-571 is a well-crafted submarine thriller elevated by Matthew McConaughey’s strong lead performance, but the over-the-top explosions and familiar action beats eventually lose focus, preventing it from rising above a solid but unremarkable 6/10. See more Meri S. @mschroeder Feb 18 Not my type of movie. Lots of explosions, etc. some of it seemed a little hokey. Not to generalize, but probably more of a guy movie. See more Raphaël T @Salbataaar Feb 13 It's not incredible but the continuity is somewhat compressed to lead to the main thrill of the movie. The thrill is there and we are on board with the crew doing their heist and maybe getting away with it. Yet the shortcuts taken are a bit tedious history-wise. But overall it's a good and easy movie to watch with WWII savvy people. Respect to the men who really did those heists in wartime.

They should be ashamed of this travesty See more Read all reviews
