I hate remakes, but this movie needs one. With a huge budget.

Just an incredible film and one that blends history with a sci fi theme that really works amazingly well. Fine performances by the cast and James Faratino explaining the Pearl Harbor attack is very riveting.

You and me both

Always wondered what was up with the pronunciation of the first two Japanese aircraft carriers if anyone knows. Akagi, Kaga... He pronounces/names the other 4 correctly.

I dont see the issue. If you take Japan out of the war early, the Germans arnt going to get any support from them

Excellent flick

At the time I really wanted this made into a series... episode 2 793 AD STOP THE VIKINGS!

The final scene in this movie is awesome!

This is one of the greatest scenes of this movie. It's the point of the Nimitz going from a passive stand, to an active stand.

The most amazing part of this scene is the actor playing the pilot was in fact one of the pilots that attacked Pearl harbor in 1941.

Katherine Ross is so hot !!!

🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

I watched this movie many times and to have Charles Durning, Kirk Douglas, Charlie Sheen was not to dismiss. The New F-14, Tom Cats were used in the movie in the 1980’s helped the Navy’s image of a next movie project.. “Top Gun…” By 1983-1985 Top Gun; might have used some stock footage of this movie.

Prob one of the greatest movie of it s time!

I still love this film but it is not without its flaws. Like, how is it that a Japanese fighter pilot with the lowly rank of lieutenant has any knowledge of the super secret Pearl Harbor attack coming. His orders to clear any potential radio threats not withstanding. And where did those fighters come from? The Zero-sen fighter had awesome range, for its time but not awesome enough to fly from the Marshall Islands to within a hundred miles of Hawaii. Still, I love this movie for the great romp it takes us on and the good performances of the actors.

interesting thing as i remember the congressman went into acting to cope with ptsd.

the interesting thing is the congressman in real life was a ww11 decorated soldier. he was a member of the big red one from omaha beach to the end of the war. i'm not sure if he was buried at arlington but it was a strong possibility.

Sometime, they should do a sequel without screwing it up. Most sequels are horrible and very disappointing

the Aircraft carries were : Akagi, Kaga, Sōryū, Hiryū, Shōkaku, and Zuikaku not kong ni and kong na !!!

The girl is not ALisha, the original singer.

Javed Ali missing

This is classic! You have to now that, if you studied at military academy!

We would never know how those jets would have destroyed the whole Japanese Air Force.

Charles Durning, a WWII veteran that stormed the beaches at Normandy and suffered severe wounds. A real class act that guy.

It's a great movie let down by the third act. Since they can't really change history the entire trip into the past and back becomes utterly pointless. There is fan fic out on the internet where the Nimitz gets stuck in the past and becomes the centerpiece of the war against the Japanese in the Pacific. THAT was a very interesting read and well written for something that was done by amateurs.

I think I'd be freaking out too if some random middle-ranking officer on an enemy ship somehow knew all the top-secret details of my fleet's attack plans!

The fact that these actors weren’t willing to get proper haircuts to play a military role always takes me out of the plot.

Not that it takes away anything from this cracking film, but a fighter pilot wouldn't have been privy to such extensive knowledge of the Japanese battle plan - ! 😅

I have watched this movie numerous times and have just not noted that the 1911 that Soon-Tek-Oh (LT Shimira) is holding, has the slide safety on - wouldn't shoot.

If that movie could be made now with modern special effects it would be a lot better

USA: Don't touch our boats.

The safety is on bro. I don't think he realizes that.

This was an amazing film!

After seeing that technology, and hearing their plan foiled, that Japanese pilot died knowing beyond all shadow of a doubt that defeat would fall upon the Empire of Japan.

Great movie! The flight deck scenes are beautiful because of the old school aircraft.

Is Shankar Kaka drunk or what? I've never seen him dance so gracefully before. 😂😂 Jokes apart, superb performance. Rasika and Raman were fantastic too. I love how Shankar Kaka never tries to become the center of all attention. He's as humble as a human being can be. ❤❤

When you are playing the campaign but already know how it ends

What is interesting is that Cmr Owens mentions that the Japanese sent 355 planes to attack Pearl Harbor. Why would that number matter to a pilot? Had he known about the attack the next day he would wonder what happened to the other 170 planes as the attack called for over 500 planes in three waves. It became evident to Adm Yamamoto during the first two waves that the three carriers that should have been at Pearl were not there, the USS Enterprise and Lexington were out at sea and couldn't be found by the attacking planes and the USS Saratoga was in San Diego. With two fully operational carriers somewhere in the vicinity and the US Navy having an idea where the Japanese fleet was, they saw the direction the attacking planes flew away from Hawaii and knew their ranges, Adm Yamamoto felt it was prudent to leave the area and called off the third wave

The IJN pilot wouldn’t even have known that as none did except for the Jap high command

Fantástica me encanta

So he's got the 1911 to the girl's head but the thumb safety is engaged.

Even though the film is "dated" it is still a good watch. I usually watch this along with Raise The Titanic. Both make for a great early 80s Double Bill.

That scene still gives me chills!!!!

James Farentino was so good looking. And I loved this movie Then I found out that Charles Durning was a real WWII vet, being among the first wave at Omaha Beach. He had all kinds of medals.

What's amazing is that the actor playing the Japanese pilot was really good at comedy. Dude was hilarious. He always had me laughing hard in MASH. 🤣🤣🤣

só quer ser o Altas Horas kkkkkk

Even that freaked out the Japanese dude LOL

I have just seen this documentaryfor the first time. Although based on the Nimitz the true story revolved around the SS Minow involving Gilligan and the skipper too

The actor of the Japanese pilot was brilliant. This wasn’t spy shit- this was down to minute detail only those who planned it or those who studied it could have known. That face of terror showed he realized America won.
