Review

good short series that wasn’t 100% accurate and overplayed the fears of nuclear, imo. i think if you really fear global warming then you have to have nuclear be a larger part of the mix. unfortunately we have a lot of people who want it all and so they get nothing. good luck with that i guess.

film shows the immense complexity of such a system, the multiple failures of the soviet system – and humans in general. no human system will ever be perfect, but it appears as though this was a confluence of really unfortunate things coming together compounded by the soviet system not wanting to show weakness and making the aftermath worse than it should have been.
