Great Film...
I was a young kid at the time...
It holds a special place in my heart for me... My Dad was in the Air Force at the time, and he had been a missile crew member in the 1970s. He did, or never had to do (Thankfully), what those guys were supposed to do at the beginning of the film... Since missile silo's were off-limits to civilians, It's neat to watch the film, and see what his job was.
With the exception of the depicted computer and communications tech, circa 1983... I think the film's messages still hold up today...
I just wish countries like North Korea, would realize that having Nuclear Weapons, isn't a desirable thing... Nuclear Holocaust = "Winner: None".
Also, I still believe in the idea of "Keeping The Men In The Loop"... The thought of an A.I., deciding my fate, scares me to death... We don't need "Terminators" deciding such things...
That fact that we seem to be getting closer to living a life like that every day, is something we should not let happen.
