Not to mention that most of the time even it was just drama inside the boat.īTW, this has to be the worst managed u-boat in the history of the Kriegsmarine. The ~30% screen time that it got was nowhere enough for me. But the rest are savage, brutal, uncaring monsters that not even war can excuse. I was only rooting for Tennstedt, and I understand his willingness to be all gung-ho, regardless of his personal actions. The depiction of the U-boat crew is abhorrent. The original Das Boot gave the characters some dignity and respect and humanised them so much that you forget the fact they were fighting for the wrong side (regardless of some of the crew, including the Captain, having anti-Nazi thoughts).

Tennstedt may be pissed about not gettingĬommand, but he really has no justification for fomenting mutiny. In fact, he is a good leader from the start. Hoffman does not get off to the rocky start you would expect. The clicheish command dysfunction is poorly Its extra running time with some outlandish plot developments. Movie “Das Boot” was a realistic depiction of a u-boat voyage, the series fills This nicely connects the two boats, although there is no connection in You also get the aural motif from that movie. It does not equal the movie, but its not aĬamera follows the crew through the interior. Effort that went into the production is impressive.
