This is a war-time, mission-based drama starring James Garner as Lt. Kenneth Braden, who is sent by submarine to complete a dangerous mission behind enemy lines. The film does not fully utilize Garner's talents.
The film, like many others of its type, also includes a shore-bound romance, which adds some interest, but not much, though the love interest is well=played by Andra Martin.
The ending is weak, but it nominally fulfills traditional plot requirements.
For a much better mission-based war drama, see "The Bridge on the River Kwai."
And for a better war-time drama starring Garner, check out "36 Hours", also starring Eva Marie Saint.
