Just finished watching "The Final Countdown" originally released by United Artists back in 1980. Now the distribution rights appear to be owned by Blue Underground, a company specializing in releasing authoritative editions of cult and exploitation movies. Though, I'm not exactly sure of that "The Final Countdown" has obtained "cult" status. I could be wrong.
Transported back in time by a freakish electrical storm, the crew of the American Nuclear Carrier the U.S.S. Nimitz, finds themselves back in the past, a mere day before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Apparently lost in time, and mindful of how history has played out, the crew of the Nimitz must decide if they will intervene and change the outcome of history, and possibly wipe themselves out of existence.
I do remember when this movie first came out, and if memory is serving me correctly, Dad and Mom went to see it as part of their annual dinner and a movie anniversary celebration.
Great fun. Some movies should not be overthought. Oh, yes, it may have "cult" status because "The Final Countdown" was actually filmed on the U.S.S. Nimitz.
Highly Recommended - especially for Alternative History fans.
Ten Stars.
