Plots(1)
It is December 7, 1980. The nuclear carrier, U.S.S. Nimitz is on routine exercise in the Pacific when it is hit by a freak electrical storm that warps the time space continuum. As the storm dissipates it becomes increasingly clear that this fully laden, nuclear aircraft carrier is now at sea off the coast of Hawaii on December 6, 1941 hours before the WWII Japanese assault on Pearl Harbour. Do they allow the Japanese to complete their invasion or launch a massive counter-strike that will forever change the course of history? (Icon Film Distribution)
