Alan Arkin leads an all-star castincluding Carl Reiner, Eva Marie Saint, Brian Keith and Jonathan Wintersin 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, theirpolice 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!

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 Horton

Still laughing at this classic comedy after all these years. The "Red Scare" in this little New England village is brilliantly portrayed by wonderful actors. So glad it is part of our collection. Good way to diffuse stress.

The cold war years were a frightening time. But our fear tended to the side of irrational far more often than not. This wonderful little comedy brought us back to reality and helped us laugh at ourselves again. It reminded us that fear provided no remedy to our dilemma. Taking ourselves and our world too seriously only fed the fear and increased the distrust taking us closer to the brink. Our fear became so irrational as to have us distrust not just the leadership in other countries but to ... Read More

I bought a DVD of this classic for my mother. She'd never heard about it, and I couldn't imagine missing it! In fact, I became a forever fan of Alan Arkin because of it.
It's just as clever and funny as it was when it first came out. The cars are different, the clothes are different, even some of the boats are different -- but people are the same. They're suspicious and friendly, helpful and downright obstructive. All the same as it was then.
There's a ton of fun in this ... Read More

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.
