It get's better every time I watch it!

Rating: Null/10 (19 November 2001)

Besides being my favorite movie of all time, let me share one of the main reasons I keep coming back to this movie, the "mother of all classics"....
I served in the Navy for 20 years on submarine duty, and on some of those submarines, we carried nuclear missiles pointed at the "bad guys". Now you'd think with those nukes on-board, plus the fact the submarine was propelled by nuclear power, we'd all be deadly serious all the time and nobody would dare even telling a joke, right? Instead, I can say that on all the submarines I served on (and I severved on several!), that many of the crew behaved and acted just like General Jack D. Ripper (only they didn't have access to the keys or launch codes to start what he did in the movie!). So for me, watchin this movie with the first-hand experience I had in the Navy serving on submarines that could level the earth at any given moment, it's even more enjoyable!
Do yourself a favor- put the kids to bed early, make some popcorn, put another log on the fire, and you and your significant other enjoy this movie again and again!
