German for The Boat, Das Boot is an intense action-adventure submarine picture that's unlike anything I've
seen before.
It's about exploring how far a man will go. Also, it depicts the reality of survival in naval warfare, something that
Charles Darwin would succintly call: "The survival of the fittest."
Thanks to the incredible camera work and cinematography, Das Boot has one of the greatest endings which makes it
an emotional film overall. Terrific acting is rendered by the cast including Jürgen Prochnow who plays the German
submarine captain.
All in all, I wonder if Das Boot deserves '10'.
