The War Game purports itself as a fictional documentary, but in truth it's just anti-nuclear propaganda. The bias of the filmmaker is so obvious as to render the whole concept just a recitation of anti-nuclear literature. This movie is intended to scare you to the point that you cannot think rationally and support the anti-nuclear movement. The number of outright mistakes, falsehoods, and misrepresentations would take too long to list here, but suffice it to say it inspired bursts of laughter among several colleagues who are experts in the subject. While the visuals are interesting, this movie has more in common with Leni Reifenstahls "Triumph of the Will" than I suspect the movie maker would care to admit.
