Submarine comedy films

I watched "Down Periscope" starring Kelsey Grammer the other day on TV.
I thought it was funny...
Especially when it posed as a fishing boat

What you think about it?

It's a good movie. And as probably any submariner will tell you that's the closest to what it's really like on a boat. Insofar as the way the crew acts, not the rest of it.

You mean that U-571 wasn't meant to be a comedy?

Down periscope was awesome! Watched it atleast a dozen times when I was younger!

Im sorry guys, But I too have to say, I hope this comes out in english, I have a failing for liking parodys, and this looks just like one I would enjoy. |Does anyone know if the dvd thats out, comes with english subtitles at least. I mean that would be a start

Watched "Operation Petticoat" a few weeks ago on TCM with the kids.
Pretty funny movie.

Of course, has anyone seen an unfunny movie directed by Blake Edwards?

Operation Petticoat...great movie! (my screen name is the The Pink Submarine after all)
A classy comedy.

How was U-900? I've had my eye on that movie for sometime now...
