Any other good Naval "MOVIES" ???

Obviously Das boot is great.. Is there "anything" even close??

U-571 believe it or not I thought was good and enjoyed it.. Sink the Bismark (old) was ok, is there anything else?? I don't care if its old, I would still like to see something... THanks~!

"The cruel sea", british, 1953.

a bit hard to find, but shows the allied side, story of the corvette "Compass rose".

For WWII, Battle of the River Plate and Tora! Tora! Tora! are both great (And the latter might be my favourite war film too).

papa_smurf · 08-26-10, 01:34 PM

"We dive at Dawn", or "In which we serve" both good films.

Reckon not. I suppose every month requires a new movie thread...

Don't think there's anything wrong with adding more opinions on top of the ones in the older thread...

A good point, but it means that the same recommendations are getting made over and over.

The 'Bedford Incident' is a very good, tension filled, film about a US destroyer and a Soviet submarine above the Arctic Circle during the cold war.

I can't believe no one caught this.

I wouldn't say Pearl Harbor is a Naval movie. It has some naval forces in it but the focus is more on the love story I'd say.

Sailor Steve · 08-28-10, 01:01 AM

Crimson Tide and Pearl Harbor are two of the worst 'naval' movies ever made.
