Default What movie ARG!


I dont recall the name of the movie. Since I have only watched once on a tv show about years ago.
Brief Story
So it's a kaluen who expected to be a commander of a sub powered by nuclear engine....
But the admiral only give him the chance to use an old diesel submarine.
The admiral gave him 2 torps in case the kaluen needs to use them........
In the movies, there is a kind of sub-chasing sub................
I remind the old diesel machine diving under a merchant ship..........
And in that movies, a guy trying to imitate a whale when they were trying to hide from another sub...........


So does anyone know what movie i am describing?

It's a good one that breaks up the monotony. No it's not accurate, but it's is a funny one.

"That boy's absorbed a lot of voltage"

"Uh, 'scuse me, sir. This is an actual Navy submarine? Not a float in a parade or something?"

Approaching the bottom, sir. I can hear a couple of lobsters dukin' it out.

Radio's workin' like a swiss... car.

1-A... cold. 1-B... cold. 1-C
[spraks fly] Hot!

Somebody find Buckman, launch him out a torpedo tube.

Well, no disrespect to the USS Rustoleum here, but I'd be better off in the Merrimack!

Lt. Lake, you're almost out of uniform.

Cmdr. Dodge: Speaking of age, what do you think about our boat, Pascoe?
XO Pascoe: I feel I need a tetanus shot just from looking at it. The only thing holding her together… are the bird droppings, sir.
