This action-packed thriller deals with a U.S. submarine crew’s efforts to retrieve an Enigma encryption device from a disabled German submarine during World War II. After the crew gets the device, the U.S. submarine sinks, and they must use the German submarine to escape from enemy destroyers. The film’s almost nonstop action and extraordinary special effects will look and sound best with a home theater system.
This scene is an edited composite of the “To Be a Captain” sequence early in the film. The S33, an older U.S. submarine, is embarking on a secret mission. Before departure, the S33’s officers receive a briefing on their mission from Office of Naval Intelligence representatives on board. Executive officer Lt. Andrew Tyler (Matthew McConaughey) reports on the submarine’s status to Lt. Commander Mike Dahlgren (Bill Paxton). The film continues with the S33 finding the disabled German submarine.
