Movie Reviews of The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming
Movie Review: The Russians ard Coming. the Russians are Coming
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw first saw this movie when I was in the sixth grade. In the middle of the Cold War, just the title was a scary thing for a kid. I sat through it twice before leaving the theater. It not only was hilarious, but eased my mind about that time of world crisis. Seeing it again was so much fun and I wonder if such a movie could be made in this time of war and crisis in the world.
Summary of The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming
The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming looks overly cute now, but really, it was pretty hip for 1966. The cold war was in full deep-freeze when this well-meaning comedy tried to thaw things out a little: a Soviet submarine beaches on the New England coast, sending the locals into a paranoid frenzy. The chief pleasure of the film is Alan Arkin as the sub captain; this was Arkin's first major film role, and he had already mastered his exasperated, slow-burning frown (to say nothing of mastering his Russian dialogue). Arkin snagged an Oscar? nomination, with the movie receiving nominations for best picture, adapted screenplay, and editing--nods that reflect the film's smashing success at the box office. Somewhat dated now, the movie still has its place in the roster of raucous, American small-town comedies; seen in childhood, it will linger nicely as a depiction of foolish grown-ups. --Robert HortonWhen a sightseeing Soviet commander runs his submarine aground off the New England coast the crew s attempts to find a boat to dislodge them almost start WWIII! Alan Arkin leads an all-star cast including Carl Reiner Eva Marie Saint Brian Keith and Jonathan Winters in this riotous uproarious [and] side-splitting (Cue) comedy! Russian Lt. Rozanov (Arkin) and his crew hit the beaches of Massachusetts unaware of the panic they re about to start. Despite the Russians harmless intentions the folks in town think a full-scale Soviet invasion has been launched! What s worse their police chief (Keith) has left his hysterical assistant (Winters) in charge and the one man who knows the truth (Reiner) is only stirring up more chaos!Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: ACTION/ADVENTURE Rating: NR UPC: 027616880185 Manufacturer No: 1003900
