The Day After

Has anyone seen this movie?

It's about the Soviet Union launching 300 nuclear weapons on the United States. I believe it's from, 1983? I bought it because it was only $5; going to watch it soon. Anyone else seen it and have opinions on it? I hope it's not a terrible Hollywood attempt at an armageddon type movie.

Aye watched that movie on the T.V. Years ago they even had a debate after the movie... Very Horrific.... HOLLYWOOD.. AGAIN... Just shows ya what might happen incase of nukes flying all over the world hitting other countries eh.. Lets hope it doesnt happen....

I saw that movie when it was originally run on TV.

It was disturbing for my 12 year old self. It heightened my conviction that I would die before I turned 20, due to crazy old men with bombs. Luckily, that didn't happen.

I recall it being very powerful and well-done, for a tv movie. I have often considered renting it because I have never forgotten the impact that movie made on me.

I saw it years ago, and thought it was pretty good without too much sentimental clutter.
