Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Autumn 1941 43 young german sailors aboard u-96 enter the war against britain. They seek adventure respect and heroism. For them this voyage is for glory. For their captain a seasoned war veteran at the young ages of 30 it is a mission against enemy destroyers in a blood-red sea that can devour a ship. Studio: Sony Pictures Home Ent Release Date: 03/27/2007 Starring: Jurgen Prochnow Klaus Wennemann Run time: 208 minutes Rating: R Director: Wolfgang Petersen

Amazon.com:
This is the restored, 209-minute director's cut of Wolfgang Petersen's harrowing and claustrophobic U-boat thriller, which was theatrically rereleased in 1997. Originally made as a five-hour miniseries, this version devotes more time to getting to know the crew before they and their stoic captain (Jürgen Prochnow) get aboard their U-boat and find themselves stranded at the bottom of the sea. Das Boot puts you inside that submerged vessel and explores the physical and emotional tensions of the situation with a vivid, terrifying realism that few movies can match. As Petersen tightens the screws and the submerged ship blows bolts, the pressure builds to such unbearable levels that you may be tempted to escape for a nice walk on solid land in the great outdoors--only you wouldn't dream of looking away from the screen. --Jim Emerson

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Disappointed
The DVD movie that I bought from Amazon had many parts missing. Some important scenes and dialogues in the original version are not present in the version you sell. I'm really disappointed, and I will not buy anything from Amazon anymore.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Das Boot
Can you say "useless"? Das Boot is a German movie. This particular cut was the Director's cut. To see the whole movie, one would have to flip the disc over on its other side. So we did, expecting to have a menu there to choose English subtitles. Side two does not have a menu and therefore does not provide English subtitles for the end of the movie. Surely, Amazon, you know that some of the products you carry and sell to consumers are defective. Why not tell them?



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Claustrophobia
There have many submarine films but this one is simply the best. Films featuring U.S. submarines invariably depict spacious boats with clean, well-dressed crews.

This film is totally different. A real effort has been made to make the viewer feel the filth, crawling vermin and the compression of men into a very small space. You can almost smell the stink of a tiny ship out on the sea for months at a time.

You can also smell the terror of men forced to the bottom by attacking ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - best submarine movie ever
This is the best submarine movie ever! The directors cut, even at over three hours, just flys by - you don't realize you've been watching so long. The action grabs you and the tension holds you in the story.

You must watch the German version with subtitles - the English over-dub is terrible, you lose the feeling of being in the sub with the story, which is the best part.

Enjoy!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Das Boot
DAS-Aufladung ist eine von Filme am emotionalsten mit einbeziehen, die ich überhaupt gesehen habe. Die Buchstaben werden reich, ohne jene unbeholfenen Momente in den Filmen entwickelt, wenn Sie feststellen, dass der Direktor so tut. Sie sympathisieren mit der Mannschaft und GLAUBEN ihrer Lage, während sie kämpfen, einzwängten in einem gebrechlichen U-Boot gegen die Vorteile. Manchmal wächst der Film langsam und herausgezogen, aber der ist absichtlich, Sie glauben zu lassen, wie Sie in einem Unterwassersarg ... Read More
