Relevant in it's time but still intriguing today, "Fail-Safe" accomplishes the same commentary on Cold War military response that "Dr. Strangelove" did but with an almost entirely straight face.

A Cold War drama about politicians and military brass scrambling to avoid a nuclear holocaust does sound suspenseful. Except it was already done as a parody in Doctor Strangelove and was far more suspensful than Fail-Safe. Its final closing moments are undeniably haunting scenery.
