Phantom: The Submarine is right up there with Hunt for Red October and Crimson Tide.

Under Siege took place on a battleship, not a sub

Hunt for Red October is AWESOME. You have to watch it a couple times or read the book before you really understand what's going on, though.

U-571 is awesome, I love that movie. slightly better then red october

maybe it's just me, but i found U-571 really boring. the fact that i watched it on a 10 hour-long flight didn't help either.

i gotta go with The Hunt for Red October for the poll. Crimson Tide is a close second.

Das Boot in German with English subtitles!!!

Why is that? It really wasn't that complicated.

My vote is for Red October, with Crimson Tide coming in at Second.

Down Periscope of course.

but if you want the non-comedy, then I really liked Crimson Tide and K19.

I have not seen Das Boot though.

20,000 leauges under the sea (which was forgotten, but even won an award.)

For chilling realism Das Boot!

For action in a semi-realistic setting Hunt for Red October (Sean Connery is the main attraction though)
