Why it’s a Weeknight Watch
With almost no lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Aimed squarely at history and war-film fans and anyone after some adrenaline. It puts you in the middle of the fighting, and doesn't let you forget the cost. Sits nicely alongside Fury or Letters from Iwo Jima.
- The mood
- Intense.
- The pace
- Wastes no time getting going, at 1 hr 50 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in Dutch, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you prefer quiet, talky stories.
World War II: Resistance fighters accept a suicide mission to deliver a stolen Nazi submarine carrying atomic uranium. Hunted by Hitler’s army, the crew must outwit the German Navy to bring the cargo safely to America.
