Well-done, but I was bored
20 July 2002
Good acting and direction in scary tale about a false nuclear alarm warning. The children and adults are believable and the story has a very downbeat conclusion (that's probably the reason it's unknown nowadays).

Still, I was bored. This is a really great idea for a 45 minute short stretched out to 90 minutes. The point is driven into your head repeatedly (that nuclear war is bad) and the ending was predictable.

So, I can't really recommend this movie. Shocking in its day, but not anymore.
