I thought Greyhound was pretty damn good.

However my vote goes for Das Boot.

Great film and great book. I just watch Men of the Fighting Lady recently, another Michener based film. It was very similar and also excellent. Korea is an overlooked conflict that truly yanked “citizen soldiers” away from home and sent them into battle.

I did catch it this past week. I liked it too.  Will likely buy the blueray when it's finally released.

Das Boot, seriously, has to be the best naval movie ever.

Honestly an Officer and Gentlemen was pretty good. Some of the training scenes were dead balls accurate.

Anyways, Midway and Bedford Incident come to mind. Also Hunt for Red October and Top Gun for entertainment value.

Like the others said: Das Boot, Master and Commander, and "Would've liked to see Montana"

This one for shits and giggles just because you can never go wrong with depictions of slaying Jerry:

Midway

It's a tough call between Das Boot and Master and Commander for me.

Honorable mention goes to:

The Sand Pebbles

The Battle of the River Plate

In Harm's Way

And for comedic purposes, Down Periscope.

A cool thing about The Battle of the River Plate is that some of the actual ships involved in the battle, and sister ships of ships that were involved in the battle, were used in the movie, as they were in commission at the time. Can't beat that for realism as far as the ships go, even with the best CGI and models.

Second movie I saw in a theater with my dad, which makes me biased.

Quoted:not the abortion of a remake


It was ok and told way more of the story than the original, but it felt claustrophobic and Woody Harrelson is no Henry Fonda.

Midway
Bedford Incident
The Enemy Below
The Sand Pepples
Master and Commander
Das Boot
Horatio Hornblower series

my all time favorite movie growing up is Top Gun. but remembering being in 7th grade 2nd period studyhall and Mr. Wood walking in and saying the 1st World Trade Center has been bombed and when he turned the TV on then about 10 seconds later the 2nd plane hit will stick with me til i die but, i would have to say present day it would have to be Zero Dark 30!!! i will also say that i like the present day series Seal Team series also. plus my grandpa served in the Navy in Korean War.

Great movie, but it's not about the Navy.

But since we're talking WWII flicks,

Lol, having been on a Virginia it was funny to see where they got things close inside, and where it was really off. As they walk by the LOT, I blurted out how the hell do they have the bike in there!? My wife was not amused with me talking about where they screwed up.
