this movie offer nothing new . technically and it be well make and but the plot seem contrive and the tension wear out a you see the two side continuously escalate for no real reason predictably and the protagonist discover the simple truth and be repeatedly frustrate in his attempt to communicate it . this blocking be obviously just a plot device to heighten tension and anxiety in the audience . but it just becomes tedious . if you would like to watch a movie with the underlie threat of a nuclear armageddon and perhaps you should try the hunt for red october . rating negative ( just for the effect and the attempt at act ) .
