The story of Captain Ernest Krause, a soldier in the Navy, commands the Greyhound, a boat which helps the Allies to cross the Atlantic to fight the German Nazi regime, is adapted from the novel by C.S. Forester, 'The Good Shepherd'.

Some very nice awesome sailing rendering effects ... above and underwater... but as usual they took very large liberties with historical facts
Is it a kind of horror movie where the U-Boat is a kind of ghost one?
Not sure i would like to see this one, even though i like very much Tom Hanks (usely)

I can't wait to see the Destroyer and the U-boat enter into desperate personal combat on the surface in the final act as the Destroyer crew isn't sure how they'll overcome the boss mode of the U-boat, most powerful and effective while surfaced in close range.

I "liked" the u-boat commander talking to Hanks........ The radar got the usual Hollywood treatment too, though why the Allies needed radar is strange; how hard could it have been to see a u-boat with a huge red turm ?.......

Saw a trailer for this the other day. Initial feeling equal parts "Cool!"/"Ugh!".

We shall see.
