    A classic German visual war film of World War II. The classic and rigorous is like a documentary, but it is not recommended to watch the 293-minute director's cut version, it is too dull. A 4-point movie, because I like submarine warfare movies, so I gave it a full score. However, it may be too boring for students who are not interested in this subject. It is not recommended for female students who are not interested in this subject to...

    The inside of the long and narrow submarine just fits the perfect long shot, and every character from the captain to the sailor is three-dimensional. The submarine, which overcame many disasters and finally returned safely, was sunk by the raiding air force before it had time to celebrate. In the face of war and power, fate was toyed...

    Four and a half stars. It's not so much a movie that it's close to perfect, it's more close to complete. The director consciously excluded a lot of scenes about the enemy and strictly limited the space inside the submarine, just like when Bresson locked the audience in a small prison, everything is to shape a complete behavioral unit. And this reflects the film's only shortcoming: in addition to the integrity of the behavior, it also attempts to obtain the integrity of all the...

    Great submarine movie! Submarine is a special environment that is closed and often in a hidden environment. People in it are too prone to occluded and depressed emotions, not to mention the battle moments that are hovering on the edge of life and death. Several highlights make people very nervous. I like the ending very much, and the submariners who struggled to escape their lives have not yet fully enjoyed the joy of success and suffered heavy losses. The sense of despair at this time may be...

    Looking up at the sky, as far as the eye can see, the farthest distance can be the Andromeda galaxy light-years away. Looking down at the sea, what you see in your eyes, no matter how calm you are, you can't see the bottom of the water that is 10,000 meters deep. people's...

    The cruelty and survival of the confined space is neither glorious nor great, but it truly shows the psychological state of life of the most common officers and soldiers in the war. Having seen the history of German troops blocking British cargo ships at sea during World War II, Britain suffered heavy losses. Unexpectedly, German submarines are hiding and evading most of the time, and they are also miserable. There really is no winner in a war. The ending was reversed. Encountered with strong...

    I thought it would be more deadly in a submarine, well I found myself kind of claustrophobia...

    【A-】Director's Cut. What a war movie this is, this is an excellent psychological thriller at all. This is the first time I watched a World War II film from a German perspective. Without the main theme output of the United States, without the madness of France against Germany, it is more real. Many places are more like "Dunkirk", the enemy never shows up, but it is everywhere; the oppressive environment, the small space, although the diver seems to have the protection of the submarine, it is...

    The template of submarine films has almost established the standard of a genre film. Although the subsequent submarine films may be more exciting and popular, they can basically not get rid of the framework of "Attack from the Bottom of the...

    The scheduling exploded, and the feeling of the main road was photographed in the claustrophobic and small space. Several characters appearing have their own characteristics, which well support all aspects needed for a wonderful story. Although the expectation of a deep excavation of human nature that I thought would appear has come to nothing, in the face of such an excellent and compact anti-war melodrama, I dare not ask for...

    loser angle

    A basic understanding is that war films should be anti-war. The "opposition" here has two meanings: one is "opposition", opposing war, more strictly speaking, opposing unjust war, opposing aggression. Obviously, we should not oppose resisting aggression, using war to stop war, and aiming to achieve...

    good submarine movie

    very good! Afterwards, I was shocked. It is not easy for these soldiers to survive. Why are soldiers also political machines. It is normal to encounter unexpected events. Soldiers take it as their duty to obey orders, but what if the order is wrong?
    The soundtrack is not so good.
    The plot is slow...

  • [Werner takes pictures of the watch officers on the conning tower]

    Captain: Take pictures of the crew returning, not putting out to sea.

    Lt. Werner: Why?

    Captain: They'll have grown beards by then. It would shame the Tommies to see mere boys give them Hell. Baby faces. Ones that should still suck mama's breast.

    [pause]

    Captain: I feel ancient around these kids, like I'm on some Children's Crusade.
