Any captain played by Tom Hanks is the captain himself, the captain, the captain, the captain, all exuding a calm and wise leader style.
The whole movie is completely from the onboard perspective. From the 9th minute, it entered a state of tension. The Fletcher-class destroyer commanded by Uncle Tang found the German U-boat, dealt with it, counterattacked, sank the U-boat, escorted it successfully, and went to the British port.
Most of the plot is very compact, and it is a bit superfluous to add to Uncle Tom's emotional scene from beginning to end.
What is most criticized is that the background of the film is set in February 1942, but the first Fletcher-class destroyer in the United States was officially commissioned in June 1942...
The jammer decoys dropped by the U-boats had not yet appeared...
U-boats generally attack merchant ships and then run away. How dare they follow a frontal attack destroyer, especially if they are not just one, but an entire escort fleet...
The biggest failure was that the German army cut into the Allied broadcast channel to shout and provoke, like a schoolboy meeting. How could this be something that the German captain would have done during World War II?
Alternate historical background is okay, if you have to set a background, there will be a lot of bugs, which is not like a standard, stylized Hollywood production.
After China clapped hands and ripped the devil's crotch to hide the mine, the United States also began to film the plot of the enemy's brainless provocation and being counter-killed.
As Zhihu Gaozan said, this is a politically correct film. The enemy is frivolous and arrogant, the U.S. military is defusing the crisis and saving the fleet, the allies cooperate closely, and the black chef sacrifices heroically...
The best dramas about World War II are mainly land warfare. Last year's "Battle of Midway" was a rare and good air combat movie, and this "Greyhound", if you ignore those flaws, focus on the sea The tactics of confrontation, destroyer organization and wartime command are still very entertaining.
There have been no major maritime conflicts since World War II, and the navy has become more of a muscle-based testament to military prowess.
Recalling the excitement of Captain Han on Douyin when he crossed the Gulf of Aden when he saw the Chinese warships and the national flag, he shouted to the Chinese warships in the air, and received a reply that he was carrying out escort missions for Chinese merchant ships.
Today, modern escorts are basically calm, but the matter of "escort" itself still sounds very moving.
