U-571 Review (2000) | Movie | Contactmusic.com
U-571 takes the Das Boot path, starring a dozen of the sweatiest men in Hollywood (the makeup department working overtime on this one), all led by everyone's favorite naked bongo player, Matthew McConaughey.. . .
It's bad enough when we see the Nazis shoot up a rowboat full of survivors because of "orders from Der Fuhrer," just so we know it's okay to kill the Germans later in the film.
. . .
Truly, U-571 is a fun movie, much like Crimson Tide.
. . .
They even made Down Periscope, which four years of therapy have not helped me to forget.
. . .
But what of the later hushed conversation, when a grim-faced officer proclaims that there must be no survivors if a dangerous plan goes awry, because the Germans will torture them all without mercy?
. . .
The problem is that U-571 is so overwhelmingly contrived that suspension of disbelief is nearly impossible.

Review: U-571
U-571 follows a formula-driven format that Petersen's film flouted on numerous occasions.. . .
One would have thought that the intervening years would have allowed the visual effects department of U-571 to come up with something more impressive.) Although U-571 probably lacks the full body adrenaline punch necessary for a summer release, its placement in late April makes sense.
. . .
Director Jonathan Mostow (the man behind the camera for the relentless but hugely overrated Breakdown) should be commended for taking a thin script and crafting a compelling film out of it.
. . .
It isn't all filmmaking technique - the characters in Das Boot are developed and well rounded, but those in U-571 are there to serve the plot.
. . .
The battle scenes are well executed, with Mostow effectively conveying the confusion and chaos of what happens when a submarine is buffeted by depth charges that threaten to split it wide open.
. . .
There have been exceptions - The Hunt for Red October and Crimson Tide spring to mind - but the majority of these underwater thrillers are set in the '40s, with Allied and German submarines stalking each other through the murky depths.

Epilogue / End Titles Scene IndexEditorial ReviewsA pleasantly old-fashioned and rousing World War II yarn, U-571 pays tribute to the unsung heroes of America's "silent service": the intrepid submariners whose underwater exploits helped guarantee victory for the Allies.
. . .
Top billing goes to Matthew McConaughey, playing a young but battle-hardened officer who assumes command of the mission.
. . .
It is actually very historically accurate, and the actors are so impressive.
. . .
~ Mark Deming, RoviEntertainment WeeklyIf U-571 isn't light on its feet… -- those U-Boats are damn hard to maneuver -- the hull still holds.
. . .
Director Jonathan Mostow keeps his submarine sets dimly lit and his camera in close whenever possible, creating a murky, claustrophobic environment that even jaded viewers will find unsettling.

The History Place - U-571: Movie Review
Men under his command decide whether or not to go the extra mile and take out the machine gun nest (or turn off the valve in this case).. . .
The Allies had to rely instead on long-range airplane patrols over enormous ocean distances.

Those films have lots of intense quiet moments focusing on the relationships of men under great emotional (and sea) pressure.

The History Place - U-571: Movie Review U-571 By Fred Harvey The History Place 4/29/00 This is a fast moving action-packed war drama that will answer the question, once and for all, what's it really like to be depth-charged while you're inside a submarine.
. . .
U-571 has just enough of the 'men-under-pressure' theme to satisfy fans of the classics, plus a lot of explosive plot twists that will keep you guessing and as to what's next.
. . .
U-571, written and directed by Jonathan Mostow, and produced by the legendary Dino De Laurentiis, provides terrific entertainment, especially if you see the film in one of the new state-of-the-art movie theaters with a chest-thumping sound system.

You never seen a black guybefore?"

There were so many incidents in WWIIthat could be made into great movies and Hollywood has to make this thing.Disgraceful. mattyd-5 10 April 2012 If it was made in 1962, you'd have seen it 10 times by now.
. . .
The melodramatic, sometimes too obvious adventure is certainly at times suspenseful and borderline entertaining but never rises above a comic book level -- which is not necessarily a totally bad thing.
. . .
A device that could change the outcome of the war itself.This movie, based on a series of real incidents that in actuality were carried out by the British, is given an oddly fictional American spin by writer-director Jonathan Mostow.
