The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming (DVD, 2002, Widescreen)

An excellent film for us Baby boomers. And if you remember the cold war, and the big fear of the Russians. This film has an all-star cast: Carl Reiner, Alan Arkin, Brian Keith, Johnathan Winters. It all starts when a russian submarine runs aground on a sand bar. A small party of russians leave the submarine to get a motorboat to pull the submarine loose. But in the course of this, the locals are all involved. It is every man for himself. Lets defend the island. Close to the end of the film, there is a confrontation with the submarine commander and the locals. World War III is about to break loose. Nothing brings people together, like a tradgedy. And this film has that too. A small tragedy brings the russians and americans together to unite them. In the meantime you have the US Military getting involved.
By the end of the film, you remember one thing. The laughter the tears, and your own family all sitting around once again to watch a family oriented film, that brings you close again.
