Tom Hanks' new convoy war movie: Greyhound

It was almost unwatchable.

It's hard for me to believe that Tom Hanks could be involved in something this bad. Hanks' previous work as a producer in Band of Brothers, The Pacific and as an actor and producer in Saving Private Ryan were all beyond reproach.

One has to wonder if anyone involved in this movie ever watched Das Boot? Or read up on U-boat tactics during WW2. I'm going to say they didn't or decided to ignore basic military history to make a Hollywood version of reality.

I give it zero stars.
