Troubling, the way a good doc on a hard subject should be..., Jan 18 2012
By Patchboy - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Forgotten Bomb (DVD)
I saw this screened in San Jose, CA, completely unsure what to expect. What I discovered was an extremely thoughtful approach to a terrifying subject. The issue of nuclear armaments is not dead, and it is dangerously unstable. While it might be easy to make a film that basically runs through the streets yelling "fire!" on such a topic, the film takes a much more nuanced approach. Certainly it delivers it's moments of dread (forest fires approaching nuclear storage?!). But also has elements of humor and pathos. I would recommend this film, especially to anyone that feels like the nuclear weapon problem is in the past. It ain't just loose nukes that are a worry.Also, this film was made before the Fukushima reactor disaster. It's relevance did not take long to be proven.

Wrenching and Enlightening -- A Must-See!, Jan 18 2012
By Ellen W. Turner "Computer Granny" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Forgotten Bomb (DVD)
I grew up in the 40's and 50's when the Japanese were still viewed as the enemy and the decision to drop the two atomic bombs as Truman's finest hour. This documentary reached into the dark corners of my mind and swept it clean of any lingering misconceptions remaining from that period. The Forgotten Bomb ranges widely and delves deeply into the issues surrounding nuclear weaponry. It is carefully researched and intelligently presented, but it is also heartrending and eye-opening. It pulled me out of my cultural box and forced me to see -- always a good thing! Five enthusiastic stars!!

By Josh Klein - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Forgotten Bomb (DVD)
I got a chance to see this movie and was blown away by the scope and delivery of the information. I highly recommend Forgotten Bomb to anyone who wants to more about the subject matter or folks who think they know it all- they'll be amazed by the depth and insight!
Listmania!
