A must see

Rating: Null/10 (22 January 2001)

This is a gripping tale of the days in October of 1962 when we stood on the verge of nuclear war. The movie was engrossing and scared me more than any horror flick I've seen in my lifetime because I knew the events really happened. I was a teenager when this happened and remember how scared we were but never realized until watching this movie how justified we were in our fear. The men who played Jack and Robert Kennedy were wonderful in their parts and rather than try to imitate them, they captured their essence. All of the actors in this movie are talented and played their parts exceedingly well. For those of you who don't like Kevin Costner don't worry about it. I personally like him although I do agree with those on this board that said he shouldn't try accents; however, as I was saying even if you don't like him, please don't let that stop you from going to see this movie as it has a story that will keep you in your seats and the acting is superb.
