The New York TimesBosley Crowther
A better film about war beneath the ocean and about guys in the "silent service" has not been made. Read full review

The GuardianPaul Howlett
Hairy-chested drama aboard a US submarine, cruising dodgy Pacific waters after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Clark Gable is impressive as sole survivor of a sunk sub, given command of another. [06 May 2006, p.53]

Los Angeles TimesSusan King
A taut, well-acted World War II sub drama starring Clark Gable and Burt Lancaster and directed by Robert Wise. [27 May 1999, p.F50]

This 1958 feature is thin stuff, seriously intended but not involving. Read full review
