To me, the quaint WWII sub movies of the post war era were amusing but really not very realistic. Das Boot is the movie that gave me the feeling of actually being in a U Boat, and it was the reason that I purchased SHIII.
More modern movies often rely on cg fx as a substitute for lack of plot, and such movies are therefore not for me.
