USS Poséidon

These are just some of the uniform discrepancies, I noticed. I am sure there were more.

1. The CO wore LCDR shoulder boards and CDR collar devices. 2. No officer, besides the CO had gold chin straps on their covers. All officers are supposed to have the gold chin straps on their covers. 3. While wearing the summer white uniform, the COB wore LT collar devices. 4. While wearing the summer white uniform, the Intel Captain wore Perry Officer First Class collar devices. 5. The Intel Captain, although it was apparent that he had never been on a submarine, wore dolphins on his poopy suit (coveralls). 6. All of the the submarine line officers were wearing Supply Corps Officer dolphins instead of the Submarine Line Officer dolphins.

Another note: The Conning Officer (also known as the Officer of the Deck) gives the Diving Officer of the Watch (Dive) depth orders. The Dive's mission is to Reach and Maintain Ordered Depth, period. One exception is when diving the boat, then the dive has control of the speed and course. In the movie, the Dive was controlling depth, speed and course all of the time. That is wrong.

They had an Ensign Doctor onboard.

1. Independent Duty Corpsman go to sea on subs, not doctors. 2. Doctors are promoted to LT upon getting their doctor credentials. There are no Ensign doctors.

I could go on and on but I am sure everyone gets the point. If you cannot get the little things correct, how are you going to get the "big flic" right.

From the plot to the props, to the horribly tasteless computer generated graphics, right down to the acting, this movie was really flawed. On a positive note, I will give credit to the writers/directors/producers of this film who attempted to tell the story of our Navy's submariners. However, next time, please take some additional time to conduct the proper research on proper wear of Navy uniforms. In this age of Google and many other search engines, this information could have been easily obtained, and the realism truly brought out in your art. Instead, the uniforms created numerous distractions from the plot. If all else, U.S. Navy Sailors, like myself who wear the cloth of the nation, when viewing a portrayal of our duties, deserve to see them portrayed correctly. Anything else, my friends, border heavily on disrespect.

Personally, I loved it. I'm sorry for the others that felt it was so bad. My husband and I have watched it several times.

I think Adrian Paul did an excellent job. He's a very good actor in all his films. The other's were pretty good too, but maybe one out of the bunch could have been better.

But other than that, we were thoroughly entertained. I'm sure there are things that stand out to men who have been on subs before that were totally unbelievable. I can understand that. I show horses and almost every horse movie I sit there and pick out what's unrealistic. It's happens with all movies.

It just shows that what's good for one person, might be bad for another. I hated Natural Born Killers and Pulp Fiction - go figure.

OMG this could have been a GREAT movie, on par with Ice Station Zebra, but all the 'responsible' people accepted a sub-par script. You had major talent, pretty good graphics (come on, will improving 2 minutes of CGI video dramatically change 90 minutes of film) and a GREAT concept, and you let the doldrums of the mid-script bring the whole movie down? You had the makings of a picture, that could put Crimson Tide to shame, but the mid-script transition was WEAK!!! Director/producers, you have responsibility to prevent these shortcomings. You were so close to having 'streamed' a B/C movie from being a real hit. But you missed.

Just terrible. All of it. Actors, set, underwater action scenes, script, screenplay, characterisation.

Little better than one of those low budget made for cable tv mid week housewife tv movies of the 1970s & 1980s.
