Way way way ahead of its time……..I remember when this came out.I got goose bumps when the jolly rogers splashed the zeros.
@cheetahchampion You can say that again! 2010 seems to be the year for re-makes. Who knows?
I always loved this movie.
This should get a remake, with modern aircraft etc
Yeah I couldn’t believe it when I came across this movie on ‘DVD! One of my all time favorites from when I was a kid. I’m just so thankful for the business that gave it the ‘DVD treatment. The director’s commintary kind of boring. The extra materials portion of the ‘dvd are sadly sparce. I was just hoping for more more more behind the scenes kind of stuff. But it had been 20-years and the director struggled with remembering much beyond the scenes that made it to the final cut.
If you ever remember the name of that book Please let me know!
I was stationed in NAS Key West …. where they actually filmed most of this movie. It was cool seeing the zeros and f-14′s both on the same flight line.
The U.S.S NIMITZ declaring war on the japanese empire? Awesome!!
Is that Orson Wells speaking at the beginning?
Crazy,..I was 8 when it first came out and thought it was cool as hell to think of the possibility to change what happened at Pearl Harbor. Been looking for it my damn self so now I know to go hit up Wallys for it.
I love this movie about an American carrier going back in time!
I seem to vaguely remember a book which did the exact opposite: a Japanese WWII era carrier (history books lists it as sunk) sent decades forward in time after a major 2012 type catastrophe hits Earth.
The dialog that took place between 1:58 and 2:20 was not in the movie or any theatrical version that I’m aware of.
From a Science ficton standpoint, what would have happen if a nuclear powerd aircraft carrier had went back in time to 7 Dec 1941? History could not have been changed. A high speed pass would not have hurt anyone though.
The Producer and Director of this movie blew it. This movie had tremendous creative possibilities. If done right, it could have led to a TV series. Instead, they limited it to a few ‘static electricity’ scenes with the Carrier, a dogfight and the capture and interrogation of a Jap pilot. Pretty sad but good for only a very little kick.
I was on the Nimitz from 1977 – 1981 and actually watched them make this movie! It was awesome to see! I see my friends in the movie each time I watch it. I was actually 10 feet behind Martin Sheen in some of the scenes. I will never forget watching the make this movie!
I was 10 when i first saw this.. Saw it at walmart and bought it, watched it 3 times already lol.
i saw this at a drive in theater in jax florida, when i was 8 years old. i love this movie.
actually the nite that I wrote that comment, I was at the mall with a girl and as we walked by the movie store, and saw the movie from over 200 ft away and zeroed in on it, the girl was like WTF? y r u flipping out?
it was a lol fest
Hey linkxsc,
In case you have not found the DVD yet, it is available from BLUE UNDERGROUND DVD. They redid it and gave it the deluxe treatment. It’s also now on Blu-Ray, too!
It’s a 2-disc set with loads of extras like interviews with the pilots from the Nimitz’s Jolly Rogers squadron, VF-84, that filmed the flight sequences. It’s AMAZING! I’ve been a huge fan of this film since seeing it in theaters in ’80 when I was 14. The revamped soundtrack is also available on CD. Good luck & enjoy!
this movie has F14 therefore its good
lol, f-14s vs WW2 zeros, this was a great book, i wonder if i can find the movie anywhere
Я согласен!
Where have I been???? I read the book—never realized they made it into a movie. I must see this. Thanks for posting.
Still my all time favorite movie. I was the Aviation Supply Officer on NIMITZ from 81 to 83. My best professional day was the day 2 F-14s out of VF-41 splashed two Libyan jets. We would play the theme from the movie during approaches on breakaways from underway replenishments.
классный фильм
