Movie Info

This HBO docudrama tells the real-life story of Dr. Gerald Bull (Frank Langella), a genius weapons designer whose services were used by the CIA for some highly suspect operations. After these operations were exposed, the CIA denied all knowledge of them and Bull was put in prison; following his release, he began to work with Saddam Hussein to build an extremely dangerous supergun that threatened the security of Israel.

Audience Reviews for Doomsday Gun

I'm remember really enjoying this when it was on HBO years ago, but I haven't seen it since then so I can't tell you how well it's held up, if at all.
