Horizontal escape hatches? Plastic name tags on dungarees? Stars on the white shirt of the admiral? The "USS Sarasota"(?) looks like an old Essex class carrier and, until recently, all attack submarines were named after denizens of the deep, not a fictional character.Internal architecture is ALL WRONG for a submarine, especially an attack boat.The arms locker is unlocked, hatches that don't even look like submarine hatches, bulkhead cuts that look like a destroyer, and enough room in berthing to hold a tea dance.I truly cannot believe that the communications suite is not in an enclosed area that can be locked, despite the fact that just about everyone on a submarine has a security clearance.This movie deserves to be relegated to the scrap heap. It's not even as good as U-571, and that movie was horrible.
... View MoreThis was a really bad movie. It uses every cliché ever known to man, the 'romance' was even less unbelievable than most bad movies, and it was completely militarily inaccurate. Case in point: Catherine Bell's character Lt. Cmdr Lisa Starks was referred to as "Lieutenant" by all other characters. And she answered the phone with "Lieutenant Stark". Uh hello. A Lt. Cmdr is always addressed as "Commander." You'd think that even without any sort of original story line that they would have at least tried to get the technical details right Don't bother seeing this one. U-571 is much better. And Stealth is much more entertaining even if its kinda cliché too.

Though made before the WTC crashed, this is still a good reflection on highjacking and "sub-jacking". I wonder if these movies provided guides for terrorists.
... View MoreI thought that overall the movie was pretty good. A lot of action was in it and not much plot, for what it was I think that the movie turned out really good. Plus I'm a fan of Catherine Bell so I have to say she did a really good job as Lt. Cmdr. Lisa Stark! >
