I caught Das Boot on Encore about a year ago. I got it taped, too. It's not bad, but with all the praise for it on the forums here I was expecting more. I thought the ending was rather cliche, though.

If it wasn't the 5-hour "Uncut Version", you haven't seen it. As for the ending, some claim it's an 'anti-war' statement. Me, I think it's just because it's German, therefore it has to be an opera.:rotfl:

As far as the praise goes, it's mainly because it was filmed inside a complete mock-up of a u-boat, mounted on a giant gimballed platform that allowed real movement, and it's life-sized, therefore realistically claustrophobic.

Hi All Live in Carson, Ca. Just bought at Frys electronics Das Boot
Superbit version $14.99. Have uncut and Directors cut versions but
couldn't resist at that price. I got my wife a 50" sony plasma for Xmas
so "she" could watch her soap in big screen "heh heh heh" so this version
is for this size screen and surround sound. Ihaven't watched it yet one
damn thing after anouther comes up or she has her ass parked in front
uv it watching Jerry Springer " shoot me now... please" or soaps.

I-5 - Nice long boring peice of road.

And I agree 100% with Sailor Steve, you simply have not seen Das Boot until you watch the 5 hour version. That is how it was meant to be seen and that is how you can truly be sucked into the adventure.

Another one of my favorites of his: "Those are some meatballs!"*
