Most helpful review Sink The Bismarck!

  • Excellent factual war story

    Rated - 4.0 stars  
    By Neville Kelley from Abergele, North Wales , 10 Dec 2004

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Based on historical fact 'Sink the Bismark' shows very convincingly just what Britain was up against during the World War 2.

    Kenneth More gives an outstanding performance, perhaps as good as his Douglas Bader in Reach for the Sky, as the navy man in overall charge of stategic planning. A very good support cast makes this an enjoyable story.

  • Restrained review of important victory

    Rated - 3.5 stars  
    By itstinks (681 reviews) from North of Reading , 24 Jan 2011
    A well made view if the background to sinking the Bismarck which was high on Churchills wish list.

    Kenneth More shows a little more restraint and depth to his role away from his usual comdies and starts with a certain almost teutonic toughness which his superiors believe is necessary to beat the Germans at their own game.

    It's also fun to spot faces that went on to bigger things like Johnny Briggs.

  • A Classic

    Rated - 5.0 stars  
    By Seti (2 reviews) from Torbay , 25 Aug 2010
    A deserved classic, one of the best of its era. It lets the very real drama of the situation drive the narrative, and the low-key reaction at the end of the battle is so very British. The addition of a little romantic action is no more than a minor irritation, and perhaps balances some of the chill of grey battleships fighting it out in the cold North Atlantic.
