This afternoon was the first time ever watched the movie "Action in the North Atlantic" , really enjoyed it. Even though as it was made in 1943 there is a bit of propaganda in it, loved it. The visual effects were not bad at all for the era. Humphrey Bogart gave an outstanding performance as well.

I was impressed the U boat officers and crew were speaking German, those of other nationalities were speaking native tongues, pretty rare for films of that era.

I did chuckle a little at the u boat crews in such nice clean proper uniforms lol but understand they had no clue about how things actually were on the boats.

Definitely one of my favorite WW 2 movies now and told the story of some unsung heroes, the merchant mariners.Check it out if get a chance.
