Those scenes of the depth charges exploding are particularly interesting. It looks like they’re trying to get the same “look” of the film.

Looks alright, Ill give it watch :)
Pretend it doesn't bear the name 'Das Boot' Make no comparisons to the original and judge it on its own merit, and i expect it will be quite enjoyable.

Re make of Das Boot
 

looks like its only in German:doh:

yes, i got the first two episodes but no subtitles are out so far and my German is a bit rusty :D , i watched 20 minutes and i only understood three phrases : " Alaaaaarmm !!! " , " beide maschinen kleine fahrt voraus " and "Heil Hitler "

I think i will wait until subtitles get posted , it doesnt look bad, i guess "the u-boat plot " will be enjoyable for us , submarine fans, but i hope the " land plot " wont be some predictable melodrama .

Finally got to see this, not bad at all. It did get rather dark in the final episodes. Man, this series did not do the U-boat sailor's reputation any favors. The original Das Boot gave the characters some dignity and respect. Not this time around.

Absolutely correct - I did not watch the show to the end, I found the plot as well as the used title simply absurd.
Abstract, however, I find that Bavaria plays crazy again and prohibits all stream portals about providers in Germany, now I have to use TOR to watch series... :hmmm:

a few more details about it (but in Italian sorry).

i fear they are going to try working a love story into it.



has anyone seen it yet? no release in my country yet for any legal kind of distribution.

I would say that is the best approach to take.:Kaleun_Salute:

As I said, I watched it last week. 8 episodes. Production values were very good. I do not want to spoil it, so I will stay really general. This series is about a young untested CO and his crew, and there is also a story about a young Alsace German woman and the trouble she gets into with the French resistance. The show splits its time between both stories and they are equally compelling, but as I said above, the depiction of the U-boat crew is abhorrent. Most horrible, repugnant people in the military. There was only one guy I was rooting for, the Officer training dropout. But the rest are savage, brutal, uncaring monsters that not even war can excuse. This series does not have any of the tone of the classic Das Boot, it's more like a horror film set in WWII.

Watched the series in few days with overwhelming enthusiasm.
Afterwards can describe the experience with a strong "meh"...


It could be that this series was more respectful on the original author of the book since I'm under impression that he was not so happy about the "glorified action" of the original film.
Being as it is, I still yearned for proper U-boot action! The ~30% screen time that it got was nowhere enough for me. Not to mention that most of the time even it was just drama inside the boat...



The title was misleading in the first place; should've been called A Tragedy Placed In 1942 La Rochelle, and nothing more.

Caught wind of it long prior yet was somewhat incredulous at first.

However at this point, as there is some more data I'm really anticipating it.

Need to watch the first once more

Finished watching episodes one through four just now and I'm really liking it. :up:

Best tip I can give to anyone planning on seeing it is: It's not a Das Boot remake. Different boat, different plot. Go in with that in mind and you might like it more.

I can't find it on Hulu. Where can I stream this in US?

Watched 2 1/2 episodes... I will not be watching any more... Totally different than the film and not in a good way.

Welcome back!

Thank you good sir.

That's cuz there's more boobies than depth charge attacks.



I've watched through episode 4. Seriously? :o wtf? okay? I think it just jumped the shark at this point. Oh, and you are correct Neal. :salute:


...and it's hard to believe after all this, Doenitz will go to New Mexico and build meth labs. Better than "After MASH.":har:

I finished the season... I agree with most people here. It could have been called anything but Das Boot. Very good series and I will watch more seasons. But it was more about everything but the boat!

Should have been called Das La Rochelle!
