|
|
|
On December 7, 1980, the nuclear carrier USS Nimitz disappeared while on routine maneuvers in the Pacific. It reappeared just off Pearl Harbor on December 7,1941 - just as the Japanese fleet was cruising toward Hawaii. The USS Nimitz has been thrown back in time - and its officers must make the hardest decision of their lives; whether or not to change the course of history! This incredible adventure stars KIRK DOUGLAS as the Captain of the Nimitz, JAMES FARENTINO as his first officer, and MARTIN SHEEN as the lone civilian caught up in this unbelievable twist of fate.; CHARLES DURNING is Senator Sam Chapman, a presidential hopeful who died at Pearl Harbor, and KATHERINE ROSS is his beautiful secretary. As time hurtles forward, these fascinating characters are bound together in a drama that will affect the fate of the world, the future of humanity. Real film footage taken aboard the USS Nimitz adds to the realism of THE FINAL COUNTDOWN, and offers a rare glimpse of the astonishing power that is held in check during peacetime.
A spellbinding action tale for the whole family. |

The Internet Movie Database has a listing for The Final Countdown which includes a description, reviews, and what they like to call a trailer, but is really just some scenes from the movie. But if you have a high speed connection, it's worth seeing. They also have a grid showing what formats are available. A good place to check to see if the American DVD has come out yet. |
