neutral · AI labelView post →I watched A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE last night, and it is physically sickening to think of how our current administration would handle the nuclear crisis depicted in the movie. Would they allow Chicago to be nuked? Would they be too unprepared to respond? The mind boggles.

neutral · AI labelView post →Kathryn Bigelow’s ‘A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE’ follows how the White House reacts in real time to nuclear missiles heading towards America, but the movie itself isn’t nearly as thrilling as its premise. Find out more in our review... discussingfilm.net/2025/09/02/a...
neutral · AI labelView post →My review of A House of Dynamite is Kathryn Bigelow should make another movie about vampires or surfer bank robbers instead of more boring CIA bullshit
negative · AI labelView post →A House of Dynamite is the best film in years on nuclear war. You may think the risks are small, but even a small danger, multiplied over a number of years, sums to an unacceptable chance of nuclear annihilation. My thoughts on the film, below, and this short 🧵. newrepublic.com/article/2016...
positive · AI labelView post →I loved Kathryn Bigelow's A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE, a film that a lot of people seem to be interpreting as a fantasy (read: propaganda) of American power and competence, when in fact it is the exact opposite of that. www.vulture.com/article/revi...
positive · AI labelView post →a better version of A House of Dynamite would be a completely different movie where the bomb goes off at the end of the first act and then guys have to figure out who did it and why and prevent nuclear war basically, The Sum of All Fears

neutral · AI labelView post →They freaked out over the new Netflix movie “A House of Dynamite” where our nuclear defenses fail when we’re attacked. The only thing scarier is imagining these deplorable idiots were in charge in that event.
negative · AI labelView post →A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE is great! Watching it reminded me of THE DAY AFTER in 1983. It's a terrifying experience because you can't help but think of how the awful people running Washington today would handle an incoming nuclear strike (the premise of the film.) We're in danger every day because of them.
positive · AI labelView post →I watched A House of Dynamite tonight too and had the exact same emotional response at the thought of Hegseth & DT. Every citizen should watch this movie.
positive · AI labelView post →"Looking at the mindset of the military-industrial complex, what’s most interesting are the vulnerabilities." With A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE hitting Netflix today, a thrill to speak briefly with Kathryn Bigelow about system failure, nuclear film, and memories of STRANGE DAYS, for @letterboxd.social:
neutral · AI labelView post →A film I would love to see is a House of Dynamite-style thing about a corrupt President, obviously an analogue for Trump, defecting to Moscow after the walls start closing in. The film would follow the diplomatic fallout, the continuity of government drama, and the intelligence community freak-out.

negative · AI labelView post →After watching the movie "A House Of Dynamite" on Netflix last night, I'm even MORE concerned with the cognitive decline of THE PERSON, who has the LAST say with our nuclear codes.. Vance, Vought & Miller must be SO PLEASED! I need to go throw up now..

neutral · AI labelView post →It’s been a while since a movie gave me nightmares. Stephanie Zacharek’s excellent review of A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE does a great job explaining why I had so much trouble sleeping last night. Love how she describes Kathryn Bigelow directing “with the exactitude of a fighter pilot.”
positive · AI labelView post →One year ago today, “A House of Dynamite” opened in limited release in US theaters (it started streaming on Netflix on Oct. 24). The film depicts a nuclear crisis in near-real-time from three different perspectives, convincingly showing how US nuclear policies pressure a president to launch quickly.

As any good scientist would understand, the anti-missile system fails. My @ucs.org colleague Dr Grego has the details.
