This is one of those movies I'm a little ashamed to admit I enjoyed -- because it's really pretty silly. Even if you suspend disbelief and accept the premise, the story is still unrealistic. Kirk Douglas' character goes way, way out on a limb with his theory that "we're a United States warship and the United States is at war, so I'm gonna launch my fighters and destroy the Japanese carrier fleet -- effects on future history be damned."
The only really memorable scene is the one where the F-14s go head-to-head with the Zeros. What would happen in such a "what-if" scenario? About the same thing that would happen if an M16-toting modern soldier went up against a musket-carrying Revolutionary war soldier, I guess. |
