Or maybe I just think 3-1/2 hours isn't long enough for a u-boat movie.

I think it's because the Director's Cut was meant to be watched in one sitting, but since the uncut version was originally a TV series, it doesn't bother me if it takes two or three sittings to watch it. I've watched the Director's Cut in one sitting a few times, and by the end, I'm pretty much exhausted and immobilized. A movie with that much water and no intermission? Those cruel bastards!
