DVDs and BluRay
Jonathan Mostow writes and directs this American war drama starring Matthew McConaughey, Bill Paxton, Harvey Keitel and Jon Bon Jovi. In 1942, with the Second World War at its height, a US naval crew intercept the distress call of a disabled German submarine, U-571, and board the vessel posing as a rescue party. On board they discover the top-secret Enigma machine, but before they can return to their own craft it is torpedoed by a genuine German rescue sub. The Americans are forced to flee in U-571, taking with them a solitary German prisoner. As they make their way through an Atlantic ocean teeming with German ships, the US navy crew begin to realise that their enemy is always one step ahead of them...
