As soon as the Americans are at sea Harvey Keitel as the COB shouts "Dive! Dive! Dive!" and rings the klaxon - three times.

At that point I realized the filmmakers had done exactly zero research into US submarine operations, and the rest of that piece of $#!+ showed me I was right. The one good thing that came out of it was some great sound effects for the Pacific Aces SH2 mod.
