What are some of the better submarine films? It's universally accepted that 'Das Boot' is the best, but what are some of the other good movies from the genre?

Hunt for red october
Hunt for red october
Apart from that I believe the only thing you can do is play Silent hunter
Strange they never made a ww1 submarine movie those guys were hammering the shit out of cargo ships

Oh there's also that piece of shit about stealing Enigma

>yfw only 1/4 of the sailors who went on U-Boats survived the war
>>66861683
Crimson Tide is a good thriller, and Down Periscope is a funny take on sub movies.
>>66861683
Down Periscope is a solid submarine film and also a good comedy. And it has less bullshit that the Hunt for Red October, let's be honest.
>>66861683
Run Silent, Run Deep
Hunt for Red October
Das Boot
The holy trinity of sub movies.

Must be pretty dreadful to be in one of those primitive tin cans. Or being on the cargo ships knowing that there is a submarine out there and there is no way you can harm him while he can harm you.
>nobody mentions The Enemy Below
Plebs and landsmen all alike.
crimson tide is so fucking underrated it legitimately pisses me off
U-571 is great
>>66861883
Well i can imagine being a cargo ship in wartime means everything can harm you and you cant do jack shit
Das letzte U-Boot (1993)
U47 - Kapitänleutnant Prien (1958)
Murphy's War (1971)
Hostile Waters (1997)
Morning Departure (1950)
Gray Lady Down (1978)
Morituri (1965)
Run Silent Run Deep (1958)
>>66861683
If you want submarine vs submarine action, start with Hunt for the Red October.
If you want drama inside a submarine, definitely Crimson Tide.

It would be a great movie except for all the race bating, which the navy really doesn't see.
>>66864056
is this the one about the nuke and the failed communications system
>>66864877
And the captain and the XO arguing if horses are white or black.
>>66864081
U-571 is amazing. Great cast, great claustrophobia, great drama, and great Mcconaughey before he realized he could try
>>66864849
>race bating
I don't recall none of that.

This bit
On The Beach. Australian film from the 60s set shortly after the entire northern hemisphere has knocked itself out in nuclear war - there's a cloud of fallout working its way southwards and the Australians know they only have a few months to live. Most of it takes place on a submarine sent to explore in the north. Pretty creepy. Avoid the shitty remake.
