Totally spot on with your comment, I think sometimes people dont realise that its not just a case of pressing a button, and watching a lovely firework show, that a nuclear attack is end game for all of us, its not the actual action but its the time aftwards that really brings it home, soil, air, water, no food, christ not even the means to burn or bury the dead.
Glad the film made people think, and for those who say nuke this and nuke that country, you really should think what it actually means, I hope to god that us the human race never get to that stage, what ever the reason for falling out with each other ,through race, world rescources, or reglion, nothing can be worse than living in a post nuclear age..
