  • Summary:
    Still a great story
  • Content:
    I have not heard about this movie until a few weeks ago that my partner convinced me to buy it and I have to say I loved it.
    It came out originally in 1983 and it introduced many people to the world of computers and hacking... you know, that era when not everyone had a chip on it's ear called a bluetooth and the internet was a myth for many people????
    Although of course technology has advanced dramatically and there is no cold war with the USSR anymore, the bottom line of the story is still pertinent:
    Shall we trust computers to make decisions? and is there a point to the risk of nuclear war????
    This is a funny, entertaining film which at the end of the day, makes you think about life.

  • Summary:
    Exceptional 1980s Cold War film.
  • Content:
    Perfect casting, a first-rate script, and fast pacing all mesh extremely well in this cold war thriller. The screenwriters, Lasker, Parkes and Green, did an excellent job of taking some of the best elements of "Fail Safe" and a couple legendary Stanley Kubrick films and married them to a teenage thriller, all at the time when personal computer was just beginning to take off. Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy are never annoying in their roles, but the movie is truly brought to life by the perfomances by Barry Corbin as the salty General Berringer (nice to see the US Military portrayed in a positive light), and John Wood as the enigmatic Dr. Falken. Of course, Dabney Coleman is great as always. Great film. WarGames deserves a lot of praise for its simple but powerful message indicting nuclear weapons.
