The Day After (1983)
Fair but not the best

I was working as a Police Dispatcher when this movie first aired. Our Police Teletype system, for about 2 weeks prior to the showing of this movie, printed out a teletypes advising us that on the night this movie aired we (Dispatch Centers) might start receiving numerous calls that the United States was under attack. I happened to work the night that this movie aired and didn't receive a single call.
I watched the movie again Nov 24, 2006 when it aired on SciFi and I was not impressed then nor have I changed my mind since the first time I watched it. It was interesting but not that believable.
Would I recommend it? I don't know. I did like the beginning were SAC scrambled and our missiles launched.
