Hi,

I REALLY like submarine movies. I like the claustrophobic sensation, the hunt of the destroyer they are about to sink, the escape from the depth charges,...

Can you recommend me some good submarine movies? They don't need to be in the English language, if you know some good foreign ones either.

I have seen the like of (and many more, but I have a brain freeze right now, so I cannot give you an exhaustive list):
- Hunt for Red October
- Das Boot
- K19
- Below

What are your recommendations.

Crimson Tide!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

U-571

Run Silent Run Deep
The Abyss

Two off the top of my head.

Das Boot and Hunt for RO are the best, imo.

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea
Fantastic Voyage (sort of)
(conveniently located on the same disc through Netflix)

Sphere (maybe)

Ice Station Zebra

The Enemy Below

Gray Lady Down

Duplicate thread.

Old thread (3 pages, with poll):

62.93% say Das Boot is best submarine film.

I suggest you don't watch Sphere.




Don't forget:

The Abyss is not submarine per-se, but it does have the submarine atmosphere and feel.


Also... 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea

Down Periscope - The only movie or show in which I actually like Kelsey Grammer.

Sonova, you took my response!!! Great comedy

Strange-like. Last two movies I bought were Atragon and Ice Station Zebra. Both keep putting me to sleep after 20 minutes.

Although it doesn't help that I keep putting them on at about midnight.

If you want to go old school, I'd suggest Delmer Daves' Destination Tokyo (1943), featuring Cary Grant and John Garfield.

Korean film "Phantom the Submarine". (Very memorable "get the key" scene. . .)

Crash Dive 2
Time Under Fire

Operation Pacific
Operation Petticoat

On the Beach has a little submarine action in it. Not a lot though.

Life Aquatic.

Batman: The Movie

Innerspace
Fantastic Voyage
