Reviews

Gandalf_a I didn't know the title of this film until I outlined the plot on the comments section of the Guardian and someone identified it. It is a great film and an excellent plot. I always think if it stays in your mind it is well worth watching. I'm surprised no one had done a remake of it.I'm on a quest now to get a region two DVD. If you get the opportunity of seeing it it is highly recommended. I will keep on searching. I've made progress now I know the title of the film. Hopefully if enough sci-fi enthusiasts add comments here they may produce one.

HyperPup I feel as though an angel has smiled on me. After years of wanting to see this movie I finally saw it. This was one of the ABC movie of the week deals that I learned about in high school back in the 80's. Unfortunately I was born a scant 5 or 6 months before it aired on ABC, which meant my parents were probably enjoying it whilst I was napping in my crib in another room. I can't remember how I found out about it back in 1988 but I did, and had a nice enough of a working idea of the plot to attempt a remake of my own. That became my senior video project in my Mass Media class and while it got me an "A" in the class, it didn't garner me much recognition. I even built the props in addition to making the script! The producers needn't get their lawyers ready as I have long since lost the footage of me and my friends running around reenacting what was poorly but cogent rendition of their movie. However it would be nice if someone would remake the movie for a more modern retelling. A good made for TV movie with a nice twist-ending.

Orman Beckles Like most of the other comments I also saw this as a kid...I don't even think I knew it was a sci-fi movie at the beginning...but as they chased each other and fired their guns...I got very involved.So I was excited to see it available for download on the internet! I don't want to start a discussion about downloads! I would have paid to obtain this movie thru normal channels (will if someone tells me where..seriously I feel that strongly about it...Tori Spelling maybe?) I didn't even think it was possible since I don't think VHS was even around back then. Any ways I set it to download...since its so rare it took 6 1/2 months (not kidding...I think only one other person was making it available) and this morning 5:47 est, to my surprise it had finished.Like Indiana Jones holding a diamond....I pressed the "PLAY" button.Yes I enjoyed it! The whole war issue it brings up is a great a conversation piece now as it was back then. It has lost nothing...But the most important part for me! After 37 1/2 years later I get a second look thru those glasses! I can finally cross it off my list of things to do...seriously...I never thought I would see it again..but really wanted to...and now I have.Just a trip to the moon and my list is complete and I can die a happy man......I really thought the trip to moon would be crossed off before I saw this movie again! (wink)

qmontoya According to real conditions at that time, I have got two words after all these years: shocking and reliable. Let's remember that hatred across the world towards Americans had been triggered due to Uncle Sam's intrusion in Vietnam's "internal" affairs. The Love War serves to present America with what it would be like to be invaded, and have their own ground jeopardized. The title of course subtly suggests a certain care however; it is America that we are talking about this time for God's sake! The Cold War would alert America's national interest in an attempt to keep their eyes wide opened. Certainly, Uncle Sam's apprehension was not quite out of control those days. The Love War one of those great, old movies that keeps you attached to your seat was immerse into this "ambience." I saw this movie when I was just a child--nearly 10 I think--, and I have to admit that I really bought it: imagine... an outsider like me clearly shocked... what about insiders then? The Love War is one of those witty movies that makes you raise a WHAT IF SO ? I loved it though. I could not agree more with those comments expressing an intention to see it again... for memories' sake.
