I am a Navy submariner's wife. This one hour program shows what it is REALLY like and shows the life on board without all the PR baloney. Lots of great stuff that I and my family and friends had never seen or heard about. A dramatic story also. It had me in tears. I am proud of my husband and others like him.

This review is from: Submarines (DVD)

While this film looks and sounds very much like a documentary on Submarines, its merely a mediocre drama that deals with terrorists and a hijacked Russian nuclear Sub!! If this sounds like your bag then this film could be for you. I thought it to be an interesting Documentary but found I was wrong. It was just packaged to appear that way.
