*spoilers within*
When I first saw this film on late-night TV, I was glued to the screen! Up until that point, it was the most suspenseful film I'd ever seen. It was also the most infuriating film I'd seen, due to what the character of Jack Goddel has to endure - you'll be p***ed-mad! This is my favourite Jack Lemmon film - his performance as the safety-concious and ill-fated nuclear plant worker can't be matched. I really felt for his character. Granted this is not a 'perfect' film - it does take some Hollywood liberties - but it is extremely good and very well acted, especially by Lemmon, may he rest in peace.
