Deterrence (1999)
1/10
Absurd!
1 April 2008
A separate reviewer of this film said it had parallels with real life events in iraq and Korea. That is simply absurd, sure it is about going to war with iraq but that is where the similarities end. The script for this film is completely unbelievable, the fact that the president would announce on TV that he is going to drop a nuclear bomb (at the start of the film) on iraq after just 5 mins of hearing they have invaded kuwait is ridiculous. I could go on and on about this film, the casting of the president, his personal advisers etc are simply all wrong and do nothing to credit this movie with any legitimacy. If we are to believe that the kind of discussions held in this film go on in the white house in real life, god help us all. Worst Political Dramatisization I have seen in a long time
