One of my favorite guilty pleasure movies. Good job as usual by Kirk Douglas (RIP). One pet peeve, when the “time warp storm” approaches the Captain (Douglas) sends his Destroyer Escorts away, I don’t see any carrier commander getting rid of escorts when facing an unknown situation.

“One pet peeve, when the “time warp storm” approaches the Captain (Douglas) sends his Destroyer Escorts away, I don’t see any carrier commander getting rid of escorts when facing an unknown situation.”

My pet peeve was the hokey language. “Hmmm Contact, clean the windshields and check the oil” I don’t think this would be the language when they were in Defcon 5 stage

As I said I would like to see a really going high dollar remake in True Grit style.
