Oh that Das Boot ( again )

Yes, this version is also my favorite. Awesome, awesome movie. Without a doubt it's the u-boat movie; nothing else even comes remotely close to its characterization, attention to detail and story telling. A very good movie all around; even if you don't like submarines you'll like this movie. Highly recommended.

Yep, wonderful movie.

While on the topic of sub movies though, I watched The Enemy Below a month ago. Not quite like Das Boot but still a good movie. My wife watched it with me and she thought it was really quite good (and she generally hates watching my war stuff!). If you see it at the video store, rent it out for a Sunday afternoon.

Get the uncut version and watch it some Saturday/Sunday (at 5 hours long, you pretty much make a day of it!)

The sound quality isn't quite as good, but it more than makes up for it with the added scenes. You actually get to see Ullman's girlfriend (the one who's pregnant and Werner volunteers to take his love letters ashore) and it's got more Thomsen, amongst other nice additions.
