I enjoyed this movie for its portrayal of the submarine and its crew.

The plot is pretty silly with some huge holes but all is forgiven for the excellent job with the crew and submarine interior scenes.

Magic points are an interesting idea. I am not sure how a boomer could know its position over sea floor terrain without using an active sensor to "look"

But then the idea that the nuclear missiles need to be launched from a precisely known position in order to be more accurate to prevent civilian casualties is a bit silly on the face of it.

The entire premise of nuclear deterrence is retaliatory strikes against the civilian population of the opponent.
