The Cinematic WWII Classic!
Widely imitated yet never equaled, claustrophobic thriller Das Boot resurfaces in the definitive Original Uncut Version!
At the height of WWII, a young submarine crew heads out to sea on a top-secret mission that all but ensures most will never make it home alive. Ordered to patrol the Atlantic and destroy an Allied armada bringing supplies to Britain, these raw recruits must band together, bracing themselves against a depth-charge assault from an unseen enemy - can the Captain and his crew summon the strength to escape their watery grave?
Oscar-nominated director Wolfgang Petersen's five-hour epic adventure deftly explores tensions as pressure builds to an explosive climax, packing a visceral punch few movies can match. As we hurtle through the sub's cramped quarters, telegraphing not only the controlled chaos of combat but the fearful faces of the U-boat's heroic crew, this adrenalin-rush of a war film still haunts audiences with one final heart-breaking dilemma: would you let others perish so you could survive?
This 2-disc set is presented with its original German language audio track (English and French subtitles are available) and it's also dubbed in English.

I love war movies, but a war movie is never better than when it's set on a submarine. There are plenty to choose from, but there is none more tense, more exhilarating, or more entertaining,
than Wolfgang Petersen's cinematic WWII classic - Das Boot.
Das Boot is the Oscar nominated, widely imitated yet never equaled, claustrophobic thriller that can now be seen as it was intended with the Original Uncut Mini-Series Version!
Das Boot takes place at the height of WWII, when a young submarine crew heads out to sea on a top-secret mission that all but ensures most will never make it home alive. Ordered to patrol the Atlantic and
destroy an Allied armada bringing supplies to Britain, these raw recruits must band together, bracing themselves against a depth-charge assault from an unseen enemy - can the Captain and his crew summon the
strength to escape their watery grave?
This five-hour epic adventure deftly explores tensions as pressure builds to an explosive climax, packing a visceral punch few movies can match. As we hurtle through the sub's cramed quarters,
telegraphing not only the controlled chaos of combat but the fearful faces of the U-boat's heroic crew, this adrenalin-rush of a war film still haunts audiences with one final heart-breaking dilemma:
would you let others perish so you could survive?
This 2-disc set is presented in all its UNCUT glory - a must-have for film fans! Plus, the film has its original German language audio track (English and French subtitles are available)
and it's also dubbed in English by the original cast of actors. Two great ways to experience one of most intense war-time thrillers ever the grace the screen!
