Rewatched this recently, I think it’s seriously underrated. Nothing happens in the movie at all other than people talking in rooms yet it’s more tense, dramatic, and entertaining than most anything you see today.

The UN Security Council meeting scene and the scene with McNamara chewing out that admiral for firing on the Russian ship are great.

"Are these twenty millimeter or forty millimeter sparrows, sir?"
Indeed a very good movie.
The Cuban Missile Crisis is largely unknown these days. I remember my dad telling me about trains passing though Abita Springs carrying tanks and artillery on the way to Florida in case we had to invade. He was thirteen at the time, and said for a kid, it was both a scary and exciting time, but for the adults, it was only scary.

I liked the 1974 TV movie The Missiles of October better.

Thank God trump was not around for it.
Not kidding, I think there is a 90% chance nuclear war would have occurred and wiped out hundreds of millions if trump had been in JFKs shoes.
Cuban missile crisis has always fascinated me. As has the Russian sub commander who surfaced instead of launching when we were dropping depth charges on him. The man that saved the world...
Anyway, I'm not sure I've seen this film so about to watch it on amazon prime now. Just purchased it. Hopefully I havent seen it, I've seen a lot of stuff on the subject. My personal favorite is The Fog of War.

It sucks the Kennedys' dicks too much (to be expected, given the author), but it still is awesome.
ETA: Interesting read on how much Kennedy dick sucking has gone on and what the real story is: LINK

I liked it quite a bit.
My only problem is that they illustrate the bulk of internal conflict in the form of alluding to the military-industrial complex boogeyman. I am unsure if that or Costner’s accent was more based on reality.
