Terrible on technical accuracy. It seems all US naval personnel either question their orders or simply ignore them - without consequence. Apparently this is well tolerated in the navy. The US navy is portrayed as blundering and ineffective. The story has potential but it's just too difficult to get past the flaws. The stolen sub navigates through shipwrecks as if it were magic, while US submarines fumble around and crash into things. Japanese government officials continue to say that war must be avoided at all cost, but act just the opposite - including sending their fleet to defend the stolen submarine.
