Das Boot movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Janet Maslin, New York Times: Das Boot is yet another moving testament to the wastefulness of battle. Read more
Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader: The film has no qualities beyond its formal polish. Read more
James Berardinelli, ReelViews: This film takes all of the drama and suspense inherent in a submarine-based story and delivers it in a near- perfect package, establishing Das Boot as not just a terrific adrenaline rush, but one of the best movies ever made. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: Wolfgang Petersen's direction is an exercise in pure craftsmanship. Read more
Edward Guthmann, San Francisco Chronicle: Suspenseful when it needs to be and intelligent in its depiction of the horrors of war and the sweaty claustrophobia of submarine life. On occasion, it's even -- pardon the pun -- deep. Read more

Todd McCarthy, Variety: Agripping, impressively detailed account of one harrowing voyage by a German U-boat during World War II. Read more
Desson Thomson, Washington Post: You're drawn in powerfully as the crew members experience a psychologically maddening cycle of lull and storm. Read more
