3 versions?

Judging by the replies, there are:

a. Original movie version (maybe 90 or 120 mins long)
b. Director's Cut (which I asked about - 210 mins long)
c. Uncut or miniseries version (5 hrs long)

Did I get it right?

BTW, the Director's Cut version is safe in my grubby paws

Thanks all for answering!

Haven't seen that yet, I'll rent a copy tommorow. Heh...zombies....zombies and bears are about the only things that scare me any more.... :hmm:

I didn't know there was a Das Boot book. I allways prefer books to a movie, as they (in general) allways seem more imersive. Probably because your brain is handleing all the multimedia.

The director's cut is really amazing and very fun. if you like SHIII, you MUST have it because will inmerse you even more in the U-Boat way of live.

But, of course, almost allways, the books are better than the films.

Hehe, when I see a good book, I always check if thereÂ´s a movie made of it. If there is, I choose the movie, my patience isnÂ´t made for the books.
