In an interview I saw with Werner Hirschmann, the engineer on U-190, mentioned that the scenes in Das Boot where they were being depth charged was very unrealistic. He said the boat doesn't roll around like in the movie, it's more of a violent shudder.
I do however like Das Boot and have the full length version (5 hrs?) and have watched the German with english sub-titles and the english version. Reading the movie was a pain but the lip syncing was just as annoying but slightly easier to watch
