The film gives a very exciting way, the perspectives and decision-making in the White House during the Cuban missile crisis. Of course, there is a feature film, so not every detail to put on the gold scale. But key facts are presented historically correct. Exaggerated the role of Kennedy adviser, the Kevin Costner plays. All other persons are not only visually very well made, but also in substance. Although the prospect of the Kremlin fehtlt completely dramaturgical reasons, but especially exciting are the discussions in the White House. The opposing positions, vehemently represented in the Falken as the army chief and national security adviser Bundy and Acheson a hard line, Adlai Stevenson for negotiations entering and Kennedy tried to avoid on the one hand a war, on the other hand to reach a unanimous decision on the procedure, are very good traced. That bureaucratic procedures, the world would have driven almost to the nuclear war, makes this exciting film gives an oppressive clearly!
