This took me all night to think about. It was pretty unique in it's structure and what I can only assume is realistic chain of possible events. At first, I didn't understand what was happening as they went from one person to another and there was overlapping dialogue and then I clued in that it's repeating the same time frame from different view points. The amount of people involved in trying to analyze the threat and to determine if it's real and if the info should go up the chain of command and how to immediately stop the threat is literally fraction of seconds. Everyone basically said, we trained for this. That is one thing I noticed, is every one said we practiced this or had training for this, but when it actually happens..it's no longer a drill and are steps skipped or missed with literally only minutes to spare? Obviously with the clock ticking and the President getting info from everyone left and right, there is a decision to make and one that is the worlds deadliest choice. The ending was NOT what I expected at all and that was part of my dilemma last night when thinking of a review. Now I get it. There is no right choice. Every nation with nuclear capabilities is a house of dynamite and every nation also plays a part in the decision making process and what happens with the push of a button. There is no right answer and come to your own conclusion with the data you, the viewer was provided...an can you live with that choice?????
