Production Year: 2000 - Action/Adventure - Director: Jonathon Mostow - Original Language: English - Classification: 12 years and over - Starring:Bill Paxton, Harvey Keitel, Jon Bon Jovi, Jake Weber, Dave Power, Matthew McConaughey
The basis of the film is that the crew have been sent to get a enigma decoding device from a German U boat. One of the heroes Andrew Tyler has been denied becoming a captain therefore when trouble occurs he sees his chance to take over as Captain an d prove himself An action packed film with some excellent film work and scenes. There are a number of big bangs and the special effects make the film which is a bit lacking at times with dialouge. Although the Yanks have made themselves heroes just remember that it was the brits that actually did this but dont let it spoil the film. Worth a viewing anyway go and see it.
