Overview

The Bismarck was the fabled German battleship of World War II. This film traces the "life" of the Bismarck from its launching courtesy of newsreel footage through its many battles and narrow escapes, concluding with its far-from-inevitable sinking in the Spring of 1941. Since one couldn't expect a ship to carry a 97-minute movie, the story concentrates on the human element, specifically a British intelligence captain Kenneth More, who has lost his family in the London blitz and thus has a personal reason for seeing the Bismarck blasted from the sea. The captain's tireless efforts are abetted by the love and support of a female naval officer Dana Wynter. The climactic sinking is deftly assembled from stock footage and ...

Overview

The Bismarck was the fabled German battleship of World War II. This film traces the "life" of the Bismarck from its launching courtesy of newsreel footage through its many battles and narrow escapes, concluding with its far-from-inevitable sinking in the Spring of 1941. Since one couldn't expect a ship to carry a 97-minute movie, the story concentrates on the human element, specifically a British intelligence captain Kenneth More, who has lost his family in the London blitz and thus has a personal reason for seeing the Bismarck blasted from the sea. The captain's tireless efforts are abetted by the love and support of a female naval officer Dana Wynter. The climactic sinking is deftly assembled from stock footage and newly shot scenes of expertly delineated scale models. As a bonus, Sink the Bismarck yielded a hit song, which many children of the 1960s can still recite from memory. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    more from this reviewer

    Entertaining fictionalized account of the Royal Navy's hunt for the Bismarck with solid performances and a script that makes sense of a complicated operation.

    Great widescreen war movie from Fox, with solid performances by Kenneth More and Dana Wynter in the fictional aspect of the script that provides an effective counterpoint to the military excitement. Understated in the British tradition (although largely an American production), the hunt for the Bismarck and Prinz Eugen is described succinctly and portrayed with an eye for balance between set pieces and personal relationships. Miniature and effects work is fine, long before the days of CG effects.

    Weaknesses are the German admiral's caricature of a Nazi officer and some military protocol that is more American than British, but they don't really detract.

    Edward R. Murrow plays himself in cameo newscasts, and the screenwriter, Edmund H. North, later contributed to an even more famous Fox war movie--Patton. Director Lewis Gilbert went on to direct two James Bond movies. Recommended.

    I Don't Care How You Do It!

    Churchill said it, or at least one of his doubles said it. This is a dramatization that is factual, filled with historical significance. For we Americans, it is a lesser known battle because most Americans think that WWII began with the attack on Pearl Harbour. More men were lost on the HMS Hood than at Pearl. Did the Germans sink it? Truly, this was an important battle.

    Great Movie

    Enjoyed the way the historical aspect was handled while mixing a love story into the film. Enjoyed the actual newsreel footage at the beginning of the film concerning the lauching of the Bismarck.
