U-571.

[DanCanovas]

ok guys I sat down last night to watch U571 again. I used to love this film despite it being fantasy. I loved it for its great special effects mainly.
I had to turn the thing off after 30 mins, i just couldn't watch it! I know its not designed to be realistic but i was constantly picking out the flaws or thinking they cant do that. So i decided this was no way to watch a film and switched the damn thing off.
What really made me laugh was the S boat welded up to look like a Type VII. :rotfl:
It was a type VII as far as I could tell with the exception of some details at the front of the boat. Those USN guys have got some good welders.
And how the hell do 2 Submerged subs during the war fire accurate torpedoes against each other? what do they do listen to the hydrophones and say "capitan we have a submerged boat bearing 352...range 400m and its exactly at 90m depth"! I wish I had this sonar guy!
The effects are great but you may as well have flying U-boats.
