Trailer—The Final Countdown

The Final Countdown

This film is so fun to watch here it is over 40 years later and I still enjoy it. Phenomenal cast and crew and being a navy man that served on the cv64 constellation it brought back memories of seeing those tomcats taking off and landing so incredible to watch!! Ah back when our navy fleet was second to none, now its china . Hopefully we will never see either back in action!! Also was fortunate to see the rare 3d bluray version!!!

I saw "The Final Countdown" in the theater (Wildwood, NJ) and quite a few times since. It never fails to entertain. It is a great looking movie. The location photography is terrific. It is well acted, especially by Charles Durning. The story is believable every step of the way. Considering the subject matter, that's no small feat. I think this movie has been overlooked by some people because of the title. The title sounds kind of cheesy. It doesn't really fit this kind of well produced, smart, thoughtful movie. "The Final Countdown" is a borderline classic in my house.

This movie deals with time-travel on a large scale... And like most sci-fi films, it is easy to pick their theories apart (especially after almost 25 years). I think that many of us have a tendency to over-analyze these types of movies, when, in fact, we should just sit back and enjoy the experience. I first saw this movie at a drive-in (remember those?!?!), and during one scene in particular, the entire crowd actually cheered. This is not a reaction I'd expect from a large crowd during a "bad" movie. If you like sci-fi, aircraft, and time-travel movies, then ignore the nay-sayers and watch this movie! It's one of my all-time favorites.

A man takes a strange trip with an aircraft carrier and lives an amazing nightmare with a bizarre twist. Time travel, moral sensibilities and harmful consequences are explored when the crew is confronted with a chance to change history. Trying to control the political impact of altering history, the captain makes a painful decision that ultimately leads to a happy ending. This one has sadness, irony and moments where ones wants to say, "how stupid can they get?" Overall, just a great Sci-Fi Thriller that will leave an impression.
