| 2 | * AmericansHateTingle: The film was widely hated by both the British public and military for falsely claiming the US Navy captured the Enigma machine first rather than the Royal Navy in RealLife. Even Prime Minister Tony Blair shared the same sentiment, feeling the film was an insult to the British sailors who help captured the machine. |

| 5 | * SpecialEffectsFailure: While the exterior sets and models for the modified ''S''-class sub and the Type-VII U-boats are decent enough, the film can’t seem to decide what class of destroyer they are facing, as that model switches between ''Narvik''- and ''Z-31''-class configurations between shots. Look for the forward guns flip-flopping between two single mounts and one twin mount. |
| 6 | * TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: The plot involves Americans seizing a German U-boat, which [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_submarine_U-505 really happened in 1944]], and was arguably much more dramatic than the movie’s HollywoodHistory version, and could have been a compelling historical film. |
