If Greyhound is even close to Red October in terms of film making and story, I'll probably find it difficult to turn off as well. |

There was also a recent series for German TV that’s on Hulu. It’s a mixed bag with some unnecessary plot lines on shore but everything sub related was pretty good stuff. |

Does Tom Hanks rape any kids in it?

That was more WWI era when the battery technology was less advanced. WWII era was more like a day submerged but they were slow when underwater. I also seem to recall reading something about surface firing of torpedoes being more accurate.

That’s not what Hanks said in the Hardcore History Adendum podcast.

This is the last movie we'll ever see Tom Hanks in.

Greyhound is closer to the most recent Midway than Red October, but it's still quite enjoyable. I would have had no problem paying theater money to see it. |

I watched Midway last weekend and my first reaction was that of utter horror as I saw the attack on Pearl Harbor. I’ve seen every war movie ever made and I’m not sure if D Day, as depicted in Band of Brothers and Saving Private Ryan, was any more horrific than watching those men die horrible deaths. I know it’s a movie and they’re actors and all, but just seeing those men, those brave Americans, die with absolutely no chance of not only fighting back, but with no option of surviving. And why in the world is the name Dick Best not celebrated more in American history? The guy singlehandedly took out not one, but two of the Japanese navy’s largest ships, yet there’s never a word about the guy. The actor that portrayed him was excellent. |
