Are there any decent U-Boat movies....
other than "Das Boot"? I have the six hour version of Das Boot and it is fantastic. I would dearly like other decent u-boat movies, but I don't happen to know any. I have The Enemy Below, but I have a REALLY hard time suspending my disbelief when I see how much room there is on the sub, the ridiculous uniforms, etc.
Are there any other decent u-boat movies? Or has Das Boot just spoiled us all so much that nothing else will satsify us?

Apart from Das Boot I don't think there is what a shame.

I have a copy of U-boot Vestvaarts, made in 1941 aboard a real u-boat. It's fairly hammy, and of course rah-rah-we're-the-good-guys, but it's pretty good for the time.

I got my copy here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Das-Boot-Min...?ie=UTF8&s=dvd
I plan to watch it from start to finish again in one sitting over the Christmas holidays.
