 |
|
I like this game. It has got me thinking and reading more about submarine warfare, naval combat, good submarine movies I'd like to watch. 
I'm curious as to what other movies regarding this issue others like or admire the work in. Perhaps someone will list one I don't know and I will be interested in obtaining.
What are some good submarine/naval combat movies?
I'll start the list.
The usual mentions are:
Hunt for Red October
Crimson Tide
Das Boat
Run Silent, Run Deep
The Enemy Below (Kind of corny in a way but I like it)
The Bedford Incident (I really like this one because it is a good hunt and chase film. Plenty of character development and suspense.)
What do you recommend? |

I've got Ice Station Zebra. I don't have it on DVD but I did see it did come out on disc like you said. I forgot to add it to the list. I was actually thinking of watching it tonight but I may go with "The Bedford Incident. You just cannot go wrong with Richard Widmark.  |

Good surface naval combat movies:
Sink The Bismarck!
