The Final Countdown Movie Review 1980

A U.S. nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, caught in a time warp, is transported back to 1941, just hours before the bombing of Pearl Harbor. The commanders face the ultimate decision--leave history intact or stop the incident and thus avoid WWII. Excellent photography and a surprise ending.
