As to the depth charges, Hollywood is indeed the correct answer. They also all explode so close to the boat that any one of them would have sunk it immediately. They just HAD to get it on camera! Personally I would have preferred no underwater external shots at all, just their experiences inside, not knowing anything until it happened.

But again, that's the movies.
