Review of Das Boot (1981) by Andrew J — 12 Oct 2008
I spent 8 years of my life in the U.S. Navy. Six of those years I was on active duty making seven FBM submarine patrols in both the Atlantic and the Pacific. If there is a grittier, more realistic submarine movie out there I've never seen it. Cinematically speaking, this is about as close as you'll ever get to knowing what the submarine service is really like (unless, of course, you enlist).
*Skip this one if you're claustrophobic.
