Review of The Final Countdown (1980) by Gordon T — 10 Feb 2012
CLASSIC ONE FROM MY YOUTH . . . its a 100 percent compared to the 20 percent I gave Margin Call because Margin Call is pretentious; The Final Countdown is wacky and Kirk Douglas and Martin Sheen and James Farentino KNOW its wacky.
Excellent score by John Scott--we'll have top track this one down. Film Score Monthly released the soundtrack not long ago.
Kirk Douglas always has a funny look in his eyes and a tongue-in-cheek smile because he knows its a very nutty premise.
