David R For historical purposes it is fine, for anything else it is terrible. Poor acting, few sets, pedantic dialogue. Computer graphics are reminiscent of earliest attempts of this kind - think of early ‘50’s attempts of underwater scenes, not 2022 when this was made. Must of had little or no budget. The history of the Hunley is fascinating, especially after it sat on the bottom of Charleston Harbor for over a century, and deserves to be well told, but this did not do it. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/07/24 Full Review Fred K Should have just been a documentary, rather than actors reading lines. I liked the history slides explaining the history. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/20/24 Full Review Tyler S the best acting I have seen in decades. cinematography was amazing. storyline gripping. I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/04/24 Full Review Samantha G I wanted to love it. Bad actors and some not period accurate costuming was really hard to look past. I loved learning about submarine history. I even studied this in my high school years. How even though I am learning about the US Hunley doesn't mean that this should remind me of the old big tv and vcr that school wheeled in when it was a in door recess or it was an earned day off from writing notes from the old overhead projectors. They could at least get actors that were better rehearsed. Yes has great info but it is like your back in High School trying not to fall asleep. 😴 Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/24 Full Review Paul G Breathtaking in scope. Magnificent. Superb acting. Dizzying special effects. A must see! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews
