U-571 Movie Synopsis

A U.S. Navy Captain and his crew are just beginning to enjoy 48 hours of leave when they receive word to immediately return to duty. On a top-secret assignment, they must disguise themselves as Nazis and infiltrate a severely damaged Nazi U-boat. Once on board, they are to steal the Nazi's top-secret decoding device and sink the sub before the Germans catch on to what's really happening. Their mission is more dangerous and frightening than anything they could have ever imagined, but one which has the power to turn the tide of battle.

Winner of the 2000 Oscar for Best Effects, Sound Effects Editing.

Excellent story and outstanding play. I usually don`t like War movies, but his one is a real masterpiece. This is not a romantic movie, so if you are on a first date, be warned.

It was good.But how did they disguise the American boat to look like a German so fast.I guess you just have to be an idiot.

I think it was a terd!!!!!
