REVIEW OF LIFEBOAT


The movie lifeboat started out slow as you see a writer on a lifeboat big enough for 10 or so people. Over a matter of an hour or so the life boat fills up with 9 people from an American boat that had been torpedoed by the Nazi Germans. while these 9 people are tending to a wounded man a 10th passenger boards the lifeboat who happens to be the Nazi captain of the ship that sunk the Americans. When this happend i thought that the Americans were going to throw him overboard but he tricks them into thinking that is a lost cause. he proves his usefulness when the wounded man needs his leg amputated and the German offers to do it. he does it successfully and he gains more trust from the Americans. In gaining this trust he becomes more and more confident killing off one of the Americans but is eventually caught and thrown overboard. Ultimately i thought it was a great movie an is a great example of suspense.
