Critic Reviews:
- “It's a wham-bam bumpy ride, great fun in the old-fashioned war movie tradition.” - Louis B. Parks (Houston Chronicle)
- “If watching a two-hour submarine movie is this nerve-shattering, imagine what the real thing must have been like.” - Mick LaSalle (San Francisco Chronicle)
- “The movie concocts just enough genuinely surprising moments to make its own satisfying niche amongst the other examples of the genre.” - Robert Horton (Film.com)
