Don't forget the single engine German fighter flying around out in the middle of the Atlantic. I guess the Graf Zeppelin finally made it out of port in this movie?

But it gets even sillier than that, because IIRC in that same scene, the sub captain tells his crew to act normal, and has to prevent one of them from manning the AA guns.

As if the German pilot would be able to tell if anything is suspicious or not as he buzzes the u-boat.

And wouldn't the correct, and least suspicious thing to do simply be to crash dive?

Frankly patrolling for days on end without sightings of any kind, bored out of your gourd, isnt a movie.
Sounds like a large part of Das Boot.

You just gotta learn to relaaaaaxx. And enjoy the movie. This was a decently accurate movie, but you cant let that get to you. just relax and enjoy. You want realism? go join the navy. (or rejoin for some).thats about as real as your ever gonna get. thats 110% realism right there.
It's annoying because the real stories of the war are so much more interesting than the crap Hollywood thinks it has to make up.
