There are some mess-ups with technical stuff in the movie, but for me that did not take away from the movie, I enjoyed all of it, and thought some of the special effects were pretty good. It was well worth my time, and after it ended, I felt that I had seen a good movie, that's more than I can say for some movies now-a-days. Rent or own, in my humble opinion it is worth the price, I would own it:)

I just have a hobby re-watch old-timers. compared the technology and other scripts that time it is pretty good. Only music is bit boring sometimes even annoying for me. Even the story quiet simple if I am trying to compare similar movies from 80s it still can take the attention, for me 8/10, I recommend anyone who don't care much about the CGI but like sci-fi, this will give you joyful hour.

In 1943, the United States tests an anti-radar system to make the U.S. Navy ships invisible to the enemy. Dr. James Longstreet uses his experiment in the destroyer escort USS Eldridge that disappears from Philadelphia. The sailors David Herdeg (Michael Paré) and his best friend Jim Parker (Bobby Di Cicco) are projected to 1984, where they meet Allison Hayes (Nancy Allen). They unsuccessfully try to contact their base and out of the blue Jimmy disappears in a hospital. Allison helps David to visit Jimmy's wife Pamela, but Jimmy refuses to see him. Now David's only hope is meeting Dr. James Longstreet to learn what to do. Will he be wheel succeeded?"The Philadelphia Experiment" is an enjoyable film with a story with paradoxes, like most of the stories about time travel. The conclusion is corny and romantic, but works well. The military team in the Jeep shooting David and Allison in their car during the persecution through the highway is ridiculous. But anyway this film is still a great entertainment after so many years. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "Projeto Filadélfia" ("Philadelphia Project")

OK this movie was kind of roller coaster for me. During the opening scenes when you could tell that the leads didn't think it was necessary to get period haircuts, I began to have my doubts. Things began to pick up though when the convoy was crossing the big bridge. This is the old Cooper River Bridge (Silas Pearman Bridge) in Charleston SC. I recognized it immediately and when they panned to Patriots Point. (A museum where the Laffey, the ship used for the Eldridge, was docked) I was hooked for a few seconds anyway. This bridge has been torn down and replaced in the last few years. It was during this scene that the continuity errors began to creep in. The vehicles used for the convoy were 1980's vintage military trucks and jeeps, likely borrowed by the SC National Guard. The jeeps were really out of place since the M 151's used in the convoy over the bridge was a Vietnam era jeep that was in production until 1982. The trucks were just as bad. This was compounded when they used the same type vehicles for present day scene in Nevada. Period correct vehicles would have set the scene apart and in 1984, WW II era vehicles in South Carolina would not have been that hard to find. The aircraft carrier used for some of the background is the Yorktown. If you look closely in some of the scenes you can see some of the jet planes that are displayed on the flight deck, clearly out of place in a WW II movie. Another thing out of place is the NS Savannah which was the first nuclear merchant ship built in the 1950's It was on display at the museum at this time and is in some of the scene and it looks very modern docked with the WWII vets. Another scene I found annoying was when they were driving and would do a close up on one of the sailor in the mirror and it was obvious the car wasn't moving. This movie reminded me of the Final Countdown made for television. The Countdowns special effects were much better although they will not serve as benchmark for anything, so that's really not saying much. I could see this as a feature on MSTK 3000.
