Very, very bad movie.
What a waste of time borrowing the Blu-ray at my library. Pic wasn’t that good anyway.

LOL at the scene when they intercept the ICBMs, no way in the world would that be possible, not even today…. they can shoot down some of the bombers, but the missiles would be in space…

yeah like they would survive.. they were lied to anyway… impossible for them to survive, they would either be insinerated in the bunker, or entombed for the next couple thousand years, cause its not like anyone was gonna dig em up… country would be the medieval europe by then

The silliest thing about the opening shots of the movie (I don’t know if you’ve noticed) is that the missile launch silo and NORAD are housed in the same building. At any moment in time, George Peppard can abandon his missile control post in the silo (a court-marshal offense in real life) and he can come upstairs to NORAD to say hi.
In reality missile silo crews, if they survived the retaliatory strike at all, were entombed underground for weeks, living waiting for radiation levels to drop off.

I hardly recognise George Peppard with that moustache! And the young Jan-Michael Vincent! Two guys that were to star in two of my favorite youth series!

Really great movie but to be honest the radioactive fallout from all those strikes would have contaminated the earth for a thousand years or more!

Thumbs up if you agree that the FX in this film are so realistic as compared to some of the hokey stuff people like James Cameron trot out today…

The failed launch at 8:40 is somewhat morbidly funny if you imagine the missile personified and saying “I think I can, I think I can, I *think* I can!”

The new THAAD missile program in the late 1990’s is designed to intercept said enemy missiles. Lockheed-Martin designed the missiles; Raytheon built the radar.

Before I googled dystopian, the opening music and tempo had me thinking: Airplane.
