You guys (& gals) have any recomendations for cold war flicks? You know, like 'The Day After' & 'Red Dawn'?

Red Dawn is a good film?  Even Rambo III was more realistic.


Oh get off it Kenny :whack: Red Dawn was a good no-brainer movie. It's a MOVIE not a documentary, it's not supposed to be realistic. It does(or i should say DID) play into the cold war fears of the 1980's.

A kid watching it for the first time now in the year 2005 might think it's just some crappy unrealistic flick, it's dated for sure. In it's day it was a good flick.

-Edit-

Talking about dated movies.. I purchased The Day After on DVD recently, man-o-man is that dated :lol: I still enjoyed watching it again, but the younger generations probably wouldn't get it.
