Query: Entertaining

As commentary against Cold War values, this film can't compare with a great films like "Fail Safe" or "Dr. Stranglove." Still, this film has enough good will, mixed in with an important point, to be very enjoyable. Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy have a great amount of appeal and chemistry in the two lead roles, and the supporting cast is alright as well (though it seems unrealistic that so many men in such high places could be such idiots). Although we don't really dought the ending, director John Badham manages to add just enough suspense to keep things from being too predictable. Well worth a watch, but don't expect a masterpiece.
