Season 2, which is still superior television, lacks some of the crackle of season 1. Go to Full Review James Jackson The Times (UK) Jun 10, 2020

Von Reinhartz takes up the mantle of defecting hero, going rogue to deliver the Enigma machine to the Americans to stop the war, setting up a game of submarine cat and mouse that promises much. Go to Full Review Adam Sweeting The Arts Desk Jun 10, 2020

What sets Das Boot apart from more run-of-the-mill war dramas is its satellite-vision scope and its fine-grained examination of the soul-destroying compromises of war. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

C R @RT48007641 Jan 28, 2024 I really enjoyed this season too. The acting was decent, the characters were painted well and the villans played their parts perfectly. Quite captivating and engaging. Same complaint as the first season though. I did take a star off for such repetitive and consistent focus on smoking which grew tiresome pretty quickly. I get they smoked a lot in that era, but it really isn't needed in every opening scene, zooming in to ashtrays, people lighting cigarettes, standing there smoking. I think some directors think it's creative, or artistic, but it generally just screams "has been directors", or "want to be try hard"' directors. The majority of us don't smoke and feel no need to look at it all the time on shows like this. See more Read all reviews
