Wow! Far out story, different and watchable. Agree with others about blacks being integrated with white soldiers on D-Day and blacks being the Airborne unit. No blacks in the front lines in 1944, only in the supply and kitchen depts. This film just wanted to be PC. The set production good, uniforms correct, weapons correct and some plot holes, incorrect. Will not go into specifics, you see them. Not your 'normal' war film so suspend what you know about WWII & D-Day.

Good film. Gerard had no discernible Scottish accent in this portrayal of a sub captain. He is listed as a producer so maybe he felt he could this off, he did. I would put this 4th on my list of good Navy films. Some tense moments. The Seals were too 'heroic', made into super men here. I was in the AF but I feel the XO was insubordinate in a few scenes of interaction between him and the Captain. In descending order: Enemy Below, Hunt for Red October, Crimson Tide and Hunter Killer. A comment put Widow Maker as a good sub film, I felt that film was lame and didn't like it.
