Battle of the Coral Sea with Cliff Robertson...think 50's movie was the worse. Movie was great at the start, lot's of real footage, but based on a sub raiding Rabaul or some port.
Sub sat on the bottom to hide from attack, then all goes quite. Skipper talking and out of nowhere you hear a JP talking in English..pan, A JP scuba diver was outside the boat telling them to surrender in english, had attached explosives and they had an hour to give up. He had some mic attached to the hull. Even though it was serious, the movie became so funny I couldn't stop watching it.
Scuba gear was never used in WW2, invented later by the French I think
