Operation Seawolf provides a solid war film that ventures away from the usual point of view, giving us a complicated protagonist who Lundgren provides a weary gravitas.

...more of a war drama than anything else and war film aficionados should be happy with this one, however the general viewing public may get a little bored.

Operation Seawolf delivers a disappointingly mediocre film wrapped in a frustratingly tone-deaf approach to its subject matter.

4/10

Too often Operation Seawolf feels dead in the water just waiting for some pockets of excitement and intrigue that never come. There’s some potential with the story, but it washes away far too quickly.

May be a bit too ambitious for its budget, but it's well worth seeking out for anyone with a rooting interest in Dolph Lundgren.

The director ruined this film. He should be banned from film-making.

I kept watching only because it was so bad. A black captain in the USN in 1945 was the final straw. Worst movie seen in a long time

A black commander of an aircraft carrier in WW11? absolute nonsense, long way from cook to captain

Where do you begin ? An opening scene where the Captain speaks German ad first officer speaks English. Gerrmans who are clearly the vbaddies because the 'Speak like Zis' . Then there are the glaring historical innacuracies like US destroyers searching for subs around Norway - presumably the Royal Navy were having tea at the time ! At about 40 minutes I lost the will to live - I have no idea how it panned out and have no desire to do so . Awful, Awful movie !
