Taut and gripping, U-571 follows the exploits of a fictional team of World War II U.S. submariners who undertake a secret mission to capture a German Enigma machine to decode German documents. Writer-director Jonathan Mostow (Breakdown) tells an intense, economical tale, reminiscent of the best classic war films, while infusing it with modern sentiments.
Spring 1942: A crew of young submarine sailors are on a much-needed 48-hour liberty when they're suddenly called together and engaged in an expedition. At the helm are Lieutenant Commander Mike Dahlgren (Bill Paxton), Lieutenant Andrew Tyler (Matthew McConaughey), and Chief Klough (Harvey Keitel). Other pivotal crew members include Tyler's Annapolis pal Lieutenant Pete Emmett (Jon Bon Jovi, proving his acting mettle) and Lieutenant Hirsch (Jake Weber), who, along with Marine Major Coonan (David Keith), organizes the mission. As much of the movie takes place in a submarine during WWII, there are inevitable comparisons with the technical masterpiece Das Boot, but Mostow's masterfully shot tale can hold its own.
McConaughey's Tyler is believably earnest as he comes to grips with the reality, tragedy, and consequence of being in command. While this explosion-filled film consistently maintains its tense pace (as did the underrated Breakdown), it also presents with surprising restraint a genuine human story--and the remarkable journey of an unexpected hero. --N.F. Mendoza

This one of those films that distorts completly history. A US crew gets an Enigma machine and break the German World War II codes. This is false, the British with some help from the Poles broke the Enigma and the German codes. Hollywood must not produce this type of movies that have nothing to do with reality and are clearly a lie.

Captain Dahlgreen (Bill Paxton), Mr. Tyler (Matthew McCougnehey), and a hard-nosed Master Chief (Harvey Keitel) lead a group of sailors aboard an American submarine during WWII. Prior to disembarkment, they are boarded by two military intelligence officers with knowledge of a German submarine, a U-Boat, that possibly has the Enigma onboard, a powerful encryption/decryption device through which secret German messages can be intercepted and used against the enemy.
Upon locating the enemies, ... Read More

It is a fantastic depiction of submarine warfare, espionage, and humanity.
