I watched Greyhound last night on Apple+ TV. In my opinion, The Enemy Below wins hands down as the better of the two. I wish Hanks had told the story of Commander Ernest Evans, USS Johnston based on The Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors by James D. Hornfischer about the Battle off Samar in Oct of 1944. Now that was a battle of little tin cans against giants.
