Les N @Vegas628 May 8 I fell asleep. Twice. On 2 different days. See more Debbie M @WorldCitizen Apr 7 It's the SADDEST film I've ever seen, but it's realistic and we need that. I tried to show it to a big burley guy friend and after 30 minutes, he couldn't take it anymore. See more CodyZamboni Z @CodyZamboni 04/06/2025 Minimal, stark, bleak, deeply personal, and profoundly sad, After nuclear attack, movie details how the fallout affects Jane Alexander's family, and community, Very realistic in how the family and neighbors deal with the hopeless situation, Heartfelt performances all around. See more Daniel C. M @RT91944882 01/20/2025 A downer, powerful quasi-sci-fi drama that features a absolutly immaculate performance by Jane Alexander as a mother that slowly loses all hope amidts a nuclear holocaust; alongside a very bleak and raw atmosphere due to it's just-as amazing direction. One of the few movies that genuinely made me cry more than once while watching. See more Henry C @RT89049117 01/17/2025 How will each and every one of us behave with the understanding that there are a finite number of days remaining? Oh, and throw in nuclear war and the swift decline of an 80s American suburban setting. Jane Alexander does the heavy lifting, she's good at portraying a woman with her life, family and community succumbing to death. But, it is the cast of child actors who extraordinarily perform their roles with little affectation. Refreshing. The film is not action, not edited for action stars, nor swift in the sequence of actions. The slow demise of civilization comes without a soaring soundtrack and death is now met with vows of vengeance. Watch it. Maybe just so that we can imagine another method of behavior in the face of catatvkysnic catastrophe. How will each and every one of us behave? See more Jeffrey P @vanillavoodoo1 11/12/2023 Be forewarned, it is rated PG and it was the 80's. Not as horrifying but it does develop into a very grim potential reality. This is a good example of how civil people should and would deal with a nuclear attack. It is a tad on the slower and softer side but, honestly, that is how it should be if people are handling the situation in a civil manner... because it is right to take a knee when facing the onslaught of a neverending overwhelming burden.
