    Creepy!

    Henry Fonda overacted by destroying New York, I'd hate to think a President either party could have the power to destroy a large city since the Russians jammed the signal in the first place? It's what I call a Leftist Fantasy, but he was good in "12 Angry Men", but I really don't know if I'll ever watch this one again? All the actors were great I never knew Walter could act like that and J.R. he was good too, but stick with Dallas and Jeanie!! It's a classic but creepy and I designed bombs like that, not proud just love my country-----Doctor Gerald Baker now retired!

    How the movie impacts you will depend on how fearful you are of a nuclear attack on your country. If you are not fearful it will be less suspensful. If you are fearful it will be very suspensful. The ending may be a suprise ending depending on how you think. All in all it was engaging and still relevant to today.

  • My favorite great All Time Movie

    I was 12 years old when our family watched Fail-Safe at a Drive-In. It was scary enough. I had trouble sleeping that night, it seemed real. Just two years prior the Cuban Missile crisis was the talk of the day. My dad was in the USAF and we did not see him for four of those six days. Kids my age had to learn “Duck and Cover” underneath our school room desks. Seven years after Fail-Safe I was in the USAF and eventually was on a SAC base in Michigan. My duty was an Administrative Accountant. On alerts I would hear B-52’s and KC-135 refueling planes take off half the night. We military payroll specialists took turns going to the flight line as part of the alert handing Pilots and crew their Payroll records in sealed tubes prior to their takeoff - not knowing if the alert was real or not real. Fail-Safe showed the possibility of mild tension graduating to world devastation. Fortunately I only experienced the mild tension as the alerts were all practice.

  • Even Steven.

    A interesting movie on what could happen if a nuclear bomber lost communication with it command while on patrol. I would call this movie Even Steven. That is what is played out in a nuclear scenario. Worth seeing, but something most of us do not want to think about.

  • picture of the 50's

    The film is suspenseful, and keeps your interest. I'll probably watch it again in a few weeks.
