Truly truly rubbish.
Claims to be based upon reality. Not sure "who's" reality they're talking about, but my guess is that it's some weird alternative reality.
Spoiler alert ================= To comment on a few issues:
Etc.

Spoiler alert ================= To comment on a few issues:
- Deciding to try to fight a sub in a merchant ship (I guess it's possible, but not by choice)
- In the movie, the depth charges were fired. In reality, they were rolled off the back
- Part way through combat with a sub, the liberty ship slows to "dead slow". Is that to make themselves an easier target?
- Seriously rubbish dialogue, hardly any of which sounded even vaguely accurate
- A crewman looking out of the front of the ship, "u-boat at 2 o'clock". Really? Well that's on your right then
- In brilliant calm weather, only spotted a u-boat at 800 yards. In return, the u-boat hadn't even spotted the bloody huge great bit merchant ship
- The "88" on the sub morphes into an auto-cannon when firing
- Why are the deck guns pointing at the sky at a range of 800 yards or less?
Etc.
