Whilst I enjoy submarine action films, I wasn't expecting much from one created in the midst of WW2.
Nevertheless, this must be one of the best wartime films actually created mid-conflict I have viewed, once the initial rather predictable scenes regarding being called to action are cast to one side.
The film managed to convey the tension of life aboard a submarine at this time, with the weakest parts those based outside of the submarine.
John Mills' face shows great communication when presented with difficult decisions and made the film work, whilst not going so far as being unbelievable.
A very good effort in what must have been tricky film making times.
