There are a lot of movies that are similar in message to Das Boot. Some are very old, some are very young, but they have a similar message.
-Band of Brothers (One you hit Episode 4, you really start seeing the overall feeling shift dramatically, most notably The Last Patrol (ep 8) and Why We Fight (ep 9))
-The Enemy Below
-All Quiet on the Western Front (1930 version)
-The Longest Day
-Black Hawk Dawn
The odd thing is that, in order to convey the message that we feel from these movies, the movies themselves have to almost glorify the very violence that many of them detest.
