POSS A BIT OF A SPOILER!! I first saw this film in 1988 and i LOVED it. As i remember it, it is about 3 young kids who find a russian sailor washed up on a usa beach, and they decide to hide him, but he wants to discover more of where he is and leaves where he has been staying. This is a very true 80's movie and one that reminds me a lot of my own childhood as when me and my brother and friends were younger we used to hide and go on mad adventures. I would say if you like 80's movies like the Goonies and Adventures in baby sitting you will love this ace of a movie. I would argree srtongly with the other person who has commented on this film, it is a VERY difficult film to find anywhere, most of my current friends dont beleive me that it even exists i have not been able to source it from anywhere!! Anyway if you do get to see it ENJOY!!

Cold War silliness with a group of American boys befriending a Russian sailor that has washed ashore in Florida and learning "they" aren't that different from "us," after all. Cue the eye rolling. Most notable today for being the first starring role for Joaquin Phoenix (billed as Leaf Phoenix back then). He's kind of annoying in this, honestly, but a lot of that is the clichéd way the character is written as a gung-ho anti-commie cartoon. Peter Billingsley is another of the kids. A few years prior he would have been top-billed but, alas, the plight of the aging child star. Whip Hubley (who?) plays the Russian and he's pretty much awful. He does have a nice head of hair, though. I've noticed a lot of remarks here seem up-in-arms about the "homo" insult and other things along those lines that weren't forbidden back then. So if you're someone who is prone to getting the vapors every time you hear something that offends your delicate sensibilities, you might not want to watch this.

Russian radio operator Whip Hubley (as Mischa) washes up in Key West, Florida as the U.S. Fourth of July holiday approaches. After the Communist mishap, three young American lads evade their parents to go out in their JFK-influenced "PT 109" motorboat. The boys discover Mr. Hubley in their hideout and fear a Communist invasion. But, Hubley turns out to be a nice guy and makes friends with gun-ho Joaquin "Leaf" Phoenix (as Danny), Peter Billingsley (as Adam), and Stefan DeSalle (as Jason). His handsomeness attracts Adam's beautiful older sister Susan Walters (as Diane)... Soon, the kids' parents, US military, and "Russkies" are all looking for Hubley... This is a "feel-good" family movie obviously made to prepare Americans for the inevitable dissolution of the Soviet Union. Unlike several of the planet's legendary rivalries, the Americans and Russians never really hated each other as people, so the potential for friendship was easy to sell. The "Cold War" enemies were really political systems, fueled by technological advances in space exploration and military might. The film's "You homo!" quips, sissy limp-wrist gestures, and boys' fear of hugging a man suggest a sequel could have featured Olympian Greg Louganis washing up on their shore. ***** Russkies (11/6/87) Rick Rosenthal ~ Whip Hubley, Joaquin Phoenix, Peter Billingsley, Stefan DeSalle

Going into this movie you may be skeptical, but fear not. This movie is very entertaining, the characters are all pretty well played, and the whole message is worth seeing the movie. Leaf Phoenix and his brother River, where among the best juvenile actors of the 80's. Unfortunately, the movie is no longer available for purchase and is pretty hard to find.

This is one of those movies you see on a Sunday afternoon on TV. This was my first time renting it from the library, I am trying to watch all of Joachin's films. His acting was great an so was his reading ability..that is what makes a great actor. The little blond that was in Something Wicked This Way Comes was exceptional as well. The 80's look comes thru in this movie, and it still stands up to today's films. If you like Joachin Phoenix, this is one to admire and watch. The music is really 80's a lot of keyboard. And the only person I didn't like was Carol King. She can't act and she can barely sing. Otherwise it was enjoyable.

With the Cold War raging on, this film really was a change of pace, bringing out a more poignant look between two warring nations. While the reality of the story felt contrived, it proved to be one of those films which brought a warm feeling in the bottom of the soul. Despite the cheesy 80s music and styles, this is still a movie one has to see with a group of friends.

"Russkies" is basically a sweet movie. I'm not a sappy person, and it almost made me cry. (I had a huge lump in my throat.) There is just something about seeing people care for each other that really makes me happy. And "Russkies" gives me a warm feeling. The chemistry between the actors is incredible. What's even more amazing that three of them were young and quite inexperienced. Although its plot isn't very realistic, it's okay, because the meaning of it is not lost. And I think the whole point behind this little movie is that - this is gonna sound incredibly cheesy - friendship knows no boundary or age difference. That last scene between Danny (Joaquin/Leaf Phoenix) and Misha (Whip Hubley) had me in near tears. And one thing Misha said really hit home. I don't remember the exact words, but he said people don't trust each other. I think it's very true. I bought this tape mainly to see Joaquin as a little kid. I know he's an awesome actor but I didn't know he was already awesome as a child. Those eyes, even at such a young age, can speak volumes. Joaquin/Leaf gave a truly great performance as Danny, and so did the other two kids whose names have escaped my ailing memory. I know nothing about Whip Hubley, and when the tape ended I thought he really is a Russian. Good performances all around, even from Summer Phoenix who wasn't in it a lot and that actress who played the blond boy's sister whom I usually can't stand. All in all, "Russkies" is worth watching.

I thought that Russkies was a brilliant film. It is one of those films which brings a lump to the back of your throat. It is very sweet and relaxing. The three teenage boys are confused, they don't know whether to trust Misha (the Russian)or go along with their parents and the American government. I really love this film especially Danny because he is so cute!!! I like the message of the film. People don't trust each other like they used to. It is a fantastic film and if you are having trouble finding it then try to research Russkies on e-bay. That is where I managed to find mine. This film cannot go unmissed. Misha and the teenagers find a way through it all and their friendship will last forever. DO NOT MISS THIS FILM!!!

I was just telling someone about this movie last week, then lo and behold, it was on Drive-in Classics yesterday. Well, naturally I had to watch it. These are my observations. First off, this movie is interesting mainly from a political standpoint. It was made at a time when the Cold War was just starting to thaw thanks to Gorby's twin policies of Glasnost and Perestroika. Thus, the theme of this movie is "Russians are people too, and we can all learn to love each other despite our differing political viewpoints". Cheesy? You betcha. The plot concerns a Russian sailor who gets stranded in Florida and is discovered by three pubescent boys. Things get complicated as these are army brats - two of their fathers are right-wing, anti-commie reactionaries who fought in 'Nam, and one of the kids' fathers was a conscientious objector. Thus, there's a struggle as to whether they should turn the Commie in to the authorities or not. Eventually though, they come to love him, and teach him about all things American. Conviniently enough, he gets stranded right before July 4th - which somehow he's completely unaware of. "Revolution?", he says, when told about the American version. As if... In any event, this movie is 80s through and through, right down to the vile, wretched soundtrack. It's interesting mainly as an historical curiosity, a period piece. It's also interesting to note that the Soviet Union collapsed within five years after this movie was made. Perhaps it's time for a remake with either an Iranian or a North Korean in the lead role.

I remember seeing this movie when it first came out in the theaters--the L.A. Times gave it a favorable review and it sounded kind of fun. It was. It's dated now ('80s clothes, '80s politics), but it's an amusing, somewhat corny little movie that will entertain and amuse. I thought that the interaction between the three boys and "their" Russian sailor seemed genuine, and I liked the premise. The scenes where the boys have a "day out" with their new (Russian) buddy are especially fun to watch. Whip Hubley is cute and likable as the stranded Russian (but, oh, that big '80s hair cut he's got!). Leaf Phoenix (now known as Joaquin) is excellent as one of the boys. (I recall how the L.A. Times review took special note of Phoenix's performance, and predicted that he had a great future ahead of him. Boy, were they right!) Also take note of Benjamin Hendrickson (playing Phoenix's Hungarian father who has no love for Russians). Hendrickson is mostly known for soap opera work, but he has an effective supporting role in this film. This is a little movie with some laughs and a good heart. It's not a *great* film, but still enjoyable. James Newton Howard (still early in his career when this movie was made) does a good job with the score. I even bought the soundtrack (on LP at the time) and it is enjoyable to listen to on its own!
