An absolute waste of money

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

If this neat little documentary doesn't get to you, you must have a heart of stone. These tests show the crazy scope of the atomic experiments that were conducted by the weapons folks to justify their own existence and keep themselves in business. Crazy stuff like the Plowshare program, Project GasBuggy, and of course, the Cannakin Experiment will not only give you an idea of the terrible power of these weapons, it will give you a new appreciation for the freedom of the press - and why it is important. If you think the critical importance and world shaking consequences of terrorists - or terrorist states - having nukes is exaggerated, this film will change your mind forever.

This is best in DVD! Only get this in DVD! You get so many extra features. The music is great. In DVD you can just hear the music if you want to. There is some great scenes of nuke explosions! For many years our government (U.S. Government) kept this deadly secret from us. Nuclear blasts in our own backyard. It is very shocking that our own government would keep this kind of secret from us, but they have many more secrets then what they are telling us. Any way, this is a great movie. You need to see it. I would highly recommend this video to anyone. But, if you are going to check it out, watch the DVD version.
