The Atomic Adventure (2019) User Reviews

ordinary people

[Kirpianuscus · 23 January 2020]

A story about ordinary young men, an atomic test, crumbs of personal life and enthusiasmus , a middle age captain and the desert , pieces of experiment and the walk in protection costumes , the change of wind and the sand as protection, death and a far flame. And beautiful care to details. A film as frame of emotions.

Atomic boredom

[searchanddestroy-1 · 13 January 2023]

This feature is only twenty five minutes long but is so boring. I did not get the purpose of this story, and am satisfied that is not a long length film; I would quit long before the end. But the basic topic seemed interesting, speaking of French militaries in the early sixties, in Sahara, when France tried some nuclear - atomic - tests. It could have been some kind of horror drama, with an interesting bodycount, to help killing time. Here, I only counted the remaining minutes before the end. Such a shame, because the directing is OK, but the dialogues maybe too modern for the early sixties.... Not totally wasted, but soo boring.
