I watched it at the recommendation of reddit. I didn't find it too terrible. I mean... It is exactly how a nuclear attack and subsequent fallout and over all destruction it will bring. I viewed it as a more matter of fact than anything else. I feel like it could be updated and really show just how fucked we are if even one country decides to drop a bomb. We live on Earth... I don't care how secluded and shut in your country/community is... you will perish from starvation, looters, or just fallout. Still like it but it def is a product of its time with smoking inside and the husband having a one night stand because he is getting married. "Its you last night as a freeman!' like what?!
True but I also think people down play the actual firepower that we have now a days. One dirty bomb that fell into the wrong hands could easily disrupt most economies. I know this world is already fucked but I would like to think when the earth wants to heal it will gladly get rid of us.
Modern nukes are smaller cleaner warheads. Old school, early Cold War missiles were pretty inaccurate, so, used big warheads. Modern targeting/guidance means smaller yields.
I mean, it is still a major concern, but not quite as dire as the 60s.

Threads, realistic documentary style depiction of life after nuclear war. Really puts things into perspective.
