Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Saw the DVD today - and liked it
I watched an advance review copy of this DVD tonight and really enjoyed it. In addition to the movie, the DVD features not only the trailer for the main feature, but also a vintage 1941 MovieTone newsreel of the real battle to sink the Bismark and trailers for the other movies in the upcoming spate of "Fox War Classics" ("The Blue Max", "The Enemy Below", "Heaven Knows Mr. Allison", "The Desert Fox" and "13 Rue Madeleine."
Based on a book of the same name, which was in turn based on the real incidents in World War 2, the movie "Sink the Bismarck" retells the tale of the dogged effort by the British Royal Navy to track down and attempt to destroy the German battle cruiser Bismarck.
Much of the movie takes place at the Admiralty in London where the superb British actor Kenneth Moore surveys the ships as would a chess player on a large board, in an attempt to second guess and outmaneuver the German vessel.
The DVD is in fine shape and I did not notice any artifacts or nicks. Considering the age of the picture it is surprising that it should be so well prsented here, so full marks must go to 20th Century Fox. I have seen this movie before on television and I do not believe I have ever seen it looking as crisp and focused as it does on this DVD.
Altogether, this is easy to recommend especially considering the low price.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A good representation of a critical time in World War II.
Sink the Bismarck is the story of the tremendous effort expended by Great Britain to locate and sink one ship in May 1941. The all out effort to find this ship and sink it is well dramatised as are the two battles which Bismarck and the Royal Navy fought. Kenneth More is excellent as the Captain in charge of coordinating the efforts to locate the German ship. I suspect More was able to model his charecter on people whom he had met during his own service in the Royal Navy during World War II. His manerisms are exactly suited to the role he plays. Overall a well done film that does justice to the historical events of May 1941. For a movie made in 1960, it has aged gracefully.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good Movie About British Naval Command
Well made movie about the hunt to sink German battleship 'Bismarck' is told from the point of view of the British Naval commanders. Action scenes showing ship versus ship combat are well done considering the movie was made in 1960. Not that accurate though. If you want a classic war drama, then this is it. If you want an accurate depiction of the hunt for the Bismarck, watch a good documentary about it.
