I thought it was plenty thorough in covering a u-boats ops and the copy I got from netflix was a remastered one that the quality was excellent on.

Funny though as the copy had been subtitled but the speech had already been changed over to English but what they were saying in English alot of times did not match what was being said on the subtitles! Made it slightly confusing but no biggie.

Thanks to you guys for speaking of it, would never have seen it probably if it had not been for this forum. Was most pleased with it.

Sounds like the "Director's Cut". You need to see the "Original, Uncut Version", which as Camaero said is just under 5 hours long.

Not to mention that it's a crappy movie from start to finish. The whole concept is preposterous. Worst sub movie ever.

I did not know that, thanks for enlightening me.

There's more than one appearance of English, in part for ironic humor.

My favorite (part-english) quote from Das Boot is actually "Not yet, Kameraden! Not yet!"

Yeah, I just stayed up all night watching the 5 hour version. There is just nothing else like it. I have seen it quite a few times now and every time I watch, I still feel the suspense, the joy, and the heart pounding edge of your seat thrills every time. It is just awesome. That's all I can say.

I'm still whaiting for the uncutt version to arrive in the store that I order it...Since September,

. Now and then I see the director's cut.

I also prefer watching the English 'dub' of this classic (sh*te eyesight...getting old)

Indeed Camaero thomsen does say 'i am not in the condition to ****' in english, I have watched a great deal of subtitled films and that happens occaisonally where the characters say something in english, must be fashionable, ha ha yeah right

I have all the sub movies that were made, and yes they are great, a couple not so great and one that is a little funny.
Enjoy them all. Sometimes when I have nothing to do and want to get away from TGW1.1a

I go watch a sub movie.
