The Final Countdown
This has been on my watch list since it came out in 1980, but I never got around to watching it for various reasons (or maybe I did and I’ve just forgotten?), but watching it now, I realize that it’s just a tease of a better film, but set to some exceptionally patriotic backdrops of a 1980’s aircraft carrier and some pretty great aeronautic shots. There’s a whole list of great actors here, so it’s not a terrible film, but they bring the story so close to being amazing, then oh look at the time, I’ll tell you later.
