Ebben a lebilincselő, megtörtént eseményeken alapuló második világháborús történetben Ernest Krause kapitány (Tom Hanks) egy 37 hajóból álló nemzetközi konvoj élén indul veszélyes küldetésre az Atlanti-óceánon, hogy több ezer katonát és nélkülözhetetlen utánpótlást szállítson a szövetséges csapatoknak.

Egy háborús, gyors tempójú, az Atlanti-óceánon játszódó hajós háborús film, a közepesen hosszú novella bonyodalmával, amelyet csak Hanks személyisége tartja életben. Gyakorlatilag a karakterek leírása nélkül, nem éppen egyértelmű háborús helyzetek és manőverek, de így is megőrzi a feszültséget, és emlékeztet arra, hogy milyen pokol lehetett részt venni benne - alvás és evés nélkül, és nagyon gyorsan, ösztönösen döntéseket hozni. Erről szól a Greyhound csatahajó. Pátosz igen, ám decens. A mozik számára a felvétel hossza és tartalma nem lenne elegendő, ám VOD-on való bemutatás ideális.

I respect that there are still filmmakers who want to explore WWII stories, but Greyhound is really just about a single ship crossing the Atlantic, being hunted by German submarines—nothing more, nothing less. Some shots were nice, others felt overly digital, but emotionally, it didn’t really grab me at all. Not even a slightly weary-looking Tom Hanks could save this one for me.

Tom Hanks and his ship escort an Allied convoy across the Atlantic, but lurking beneath the surface are German U-boats. How many supply ships will eventually reach their destination? Hanks delivers honest man's film that has no room for talk, but no room for any substantial character psychology either. It's full on from more or less the beginning, with ships and submarines chasing each other for over an hour straight, shooting or torpedoing all the time, and even though the visual effects aren't particularly good and it might not have been a bad idea to slow down a bit sometimes and deal with things other than combat, it's a very fine watch. Also thanks to the short running time.

A beautifully naive old school war epic about a soldier of Christ who resists the Germans in slippers. It’s a nice idea to turn a procedural perspective on its head and see the hunt for U-boats from the other side of the surface. If Hanks forgot about the completely necessary personal and religious mess and left it as 91 minutes of action zigzagging in front of submarines, it could have been downright catchy. This way, it’s catchy and funny, but I won't pretend that it’s worth watching throughout the footage. The perfect movie for Grandpa Simpson. And also for those who like U-571 and submarine movies in general.

As if, after Band of Brothers and Pacific, Tom Hanks needed to pay homage once more to the front-line heroes of World War Two. This film falls short of the parameters of a war movie for the big screen; it rather feels like an expensive TV production, with one studio, one incomplete model of the ship, a bit of wizardry with the weather, and lots and lots of greenscreen. At times it is monotonous with one order after another being barked at subordinates, but it also contains interesting ideas (to wit: the provocative radio calls of German U-boats). Hanks, who has the proper charisma of a captain, reliably keeps the picture afloat, and the torpedoes provide one moment of suspense – but overall, I’m not impressed. Das Boot isn’t dethroned by this.
