Mission: Rohr frei!

A film that asks: what if a hot-shot naval officer was given command of a barely-functional submarine as a prank? The officer and his motley crew are assigned to act as the enemy in a war game scenario. It’s a testament to the can-do spirit of Hollywood that they managed to get a full running time out of the premise.
