Plot hole: The radar operator reports a bogey at 15,000 yards, without, at first, giving a bearing, yet everyone on the bridge immediately looks to the starboard bow.
Up Periscope (1959)
1 plot hole
Directed by: Gordon Douglas
Starring: James Garner, Edmond O'Brien, Alan Hale Jr., Andra Martin
Factual error: The movie takes place "somewhere in the South Pacific, 1942", yet the transport plane taking LTJG Braden to Hawaii has post-war markings.
Commander Paul Stevenson: Oh, uh, one more thing, Mr. Braden, you don't get captured.
Lt. J.g. Kenneth M. Braden: Mm-hmm. I wouldn't think of it, sir.
