Sci-Fi Classic Review: THE FINAL COUNTDOWN (1980)

Written By The Unapologetic Geek on Sunday, Feb 20, 2022 | 09:31 AM

 
This military time travel yarn from 1980 was produced by Kirk Douglas' third son, Peter, and became a modest hit with audiences that is still remembered fondly by many. If you're looking for a "review" in the traditional sense, then let me just say I like this movie. This video, however, is a "review" in the literal sense (using the Miriam-Webster definition "a retrospective view or survey"), in that I'm going over the history of the film and its place in sci-fi cinema history. In other words, please stop commenting on how my videos aren't what you consider "reviews." #TheFinalCountdown #PearlHarbor #TimeTravel 00:00 Introduction 01:48 Synopsis 02:51 Production Background 04:19 Casting 05:58 Filming 09:02 Release & Legacy 09:40 Opinion & Analysis 11:25 Outro http://www.emagill.com/ http://patreon.com/emagill http://facebook.com/writeremagill http://twitter.com/e_magill PARADOX http://www.amazon.com/dp/150321978X THE STREAMING HEAP Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/cracking-foundation/id1588023446 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5UMysxa1RWOFZQe4aexZVE Google: It's easier if you just search; it's a super long url.
