;Buchheim's views of the film
Though impressed by the technological accuracy of the film's set-design and port construction buildings, novelist [[Lothar-Günther Buchheim]] expressed disappointment with Petersen's adaptation in a film review<ref name="buchheim">{{cite magazine |last=Buchheim |first=Lothar-Günter |title=Kommentar – Die Wahrheit blieb auf Tauchstation |language=de |trans-title=Commentary: The truth remained hidden under the sea |magazine=[[GEO (magazine)|GEO]] |issue=10 |date=1981 |url=http://www.cs.uni-magdeburg.de/~junghans/dasboot/inhalt.html}}</ref> published in 1981, describing Petersen's film as converting his clearly anti-war novel into a blend of a "cheap, shallow American action flick" and a "contemporary German propaganda newsreel from World War II".<ref name=Local>{{cite news |author=Jörg Luyken |url=https://www.thelocal.de/20180206/lg-buchheim-the-multi-talented-and-irascible-genius-behind-das-boot |title=LG Buchheim: the multi-talented and irascible genius behind Das Boot |newspaper=[[The Local]] |location=Germany |date=6 February 2018 }}</ref><ref name="buchheim" />
