But they had one that was supplied by the Polish They had captured a less sophisticated a model and had broke the code. But the Germans built a better one the ones used by the Kriegsmarine. The Americans also captured one from a submarine. They also got code books. But that didn't have Alan Turning and his machine. And nobody knew about these things until 1974 so don't act like a bunch of damn experts Americans didn't do this the British didn't do that hey the Polish were the first ones to get an enigma machine.

Keep in mind that this movie is not based on any single event of WWII. The 571 was destroyed by an Australian Sunderland aircraft. U-559 was the sub where the British captured Enigma. U-501 was the sub captured by the US Navy and it was put on display in Chicago. They comboned the stories of at least 3 u- boats, possibly more. BTW, the U-501 was the first warship that US captured since 1812.
The US Navy captured several enemy warships during the civil war your last sentence is incorrect. Furthermore, many of the Spanish ships at Santiago de Cuba were boarded and officially surrendered to the Americans before they inevitably sunk or burned out
@@joshwitges1338 Yes, In June 1944. But the important one, the first time a machine was captured, the machine that helped crack the code, was way back in May 1941 by the British.
and shooting from such an angle? To hit the radio from this distance, they would have to shoot sharply upwards, and 1. it would be impossible, and 2. they didn't even raise the gun barrel!
This movie, while mostly fiction, had a basis in facts. It was dedicated to the real heroes in WWII who captured Enigma and its code books, as shown in the end credits. Without them, the Allies would have had an extremely difficult time decoding and reading Axis communications, especially the U-boats and the Wolf packs. A British sub was the first to destroy a U-boat while submerged. Our torpedoes, US made, had a dismal track record. Due to budgetary limits, they test fired 2 at a target, with only 1 detonating. That was a 50% failure rate, and actual combat use showed up to a 75+% failure rate. The U-boats were having a field day just off the US coastline until they were able to beef up our defense against them.
Didn't the Poles sneak a machine out of Germany and deliver it to England at the very beginning of the war? And after careful study the machine was reassembled and then smuggled back to where it was stolen so no one would know about the theft?
And you know how they did that ? They hired the MAFIA to act as Port Authority, many got not only money but clean records per negotiations. These guys where also allowed to go ham on strikers, like the longshoremen and others who could potentially hinder the war effort or pose sabotage risk. US government seriously didn't want another "Black Tom" incident
That's why I called it "Hollywood" where anything that could happen, will. Hollywood sometimes over exaggerate to make the improbable, possible for me it's just a movie and I hope it's entertaining.
All a person needs to do is look at who they cast in the lead of this movie to realize how poor it is. Matthew McConaughey may be okay in a chick flick but he sucks in this movie.

Loved this movie as kid when it came out. However scenes like this make as much logic as screendoors on submarines They fired on & successfully take of the com shack/radio tower. Now what ? That German DESTROYER has several options to response like #1. The Gun Crews turn the 20/40mm Flak Vierlings on the U-571 and make its hull into swiss cheese. #2. They pop hydro and start dropping depth charges. A depth charge can sink without being a direct hit. #3. German Destroyers didn't operate outside coastal waters, which means they could have booked it back to port, to shallower waters where the sub couldn't follow them

US sailors were tasked with using their own disguised U-boat to rendezvous with a broken German U-boat, which was expecting aid from another German U-boat, and steal their enigma code machine. The mission went south when the original resupply boat showed up early and destroyed the impostor American boat. The survivors boarded and stole the crippled target boat. Later, while surfaced, a German spotter plane guided a German destroyer to the stolen boat. The American crew, unable to effectively run with their crippled stolen boat, waited for the destroyer to be up close and personal then used the deck gun to blow up the destroyers radio room so it could not report that their enigma code was compromised which would render the entire mission and all losses incurred a failure and for nothing. The scene after this depicts using the crippled boat to sink the destroyer, but just barely.
The movie is well worth the watch. You have a senior CPO with years of experience, and one young Lieutenant that is in command of the stolen boat. It gets VERY intense.
A typical American fairy tale about how brave and wonderful Americans are. only it's a fairy tale. Neither the Americans nor the British solved the Enigma, but Polish scientists in 1938. But Americans like to take credit for other people's achievements...
The movie is called, "U-571." And the basic plot is that the US Navy tries to impersonate a German U-boat and capture a decoding machine. The plan goes wrong. The American submarine is sunk, and handful of survivors have to take over a German U-boat.
The artistic license is pretty heavy. US Navy sailors are able to flawlessly operate German equipment and sail a U boat. Just saying.
