Except for "King Kong vs. Godzilla." I thought that movie was much better than the book.

The Cruel Sea is a great film I used it to teach my wife about
what her Grandfather did as a captain.

another favorite of mine from the genre
and a really excellent film is Corvette K-225
on par with the cruel sea IMO and its a
great film for Canadian naval buffs as its
an RCN film made during the war with
randolph scott.

in about three of the scenes hmcs buctouche (K-179)
is substituted for K225 while the starring ship
was called away to other duty during filming.
although the Wifes Grandfather had moved
onto a River class at that time Buctouche
was his ship through 41-42

I give both films
