"Thrilling! Excitingly Taut And Kinetic!" -Entertainment Weekly
A U.S. Navy Captain and his crew are just beginning to enjoy 48 hours of leave when they receive word to immediately return to duty. On a top-secret assignment, they must disguise themselves as Nazis and infiltrate a severely damaged Nazi U-boat. Once on board, they are to steal the Nazi's top-secret decoding device and sink the sub before the Germans catch on to what's really happening. Their mission is more dangerous and frightening than anything they could have ever imagined, but one which has the power to turn the tide of battle.
"U-571 is exciting!" says Newsweek. Filled with incredible explosions, raging fires and speeding torpedoes, this suspense-filled action-packed film sets a new standard for high impact entertainment and features an impressive all-star cast.

Sinking a sub! - 4.75 out of 5 (12/4/2000)
I went to see "U-571" with a friend of mine who was a supposed expert on the occurrences of World War II. I got to hear how the Americans never did regain the device that helped stop the dreaded Nazi U-Boats, and that it was the British that actually recovered and deciphered the enigma machine.
