Enjoyable cold war thriller for kids about a computer whiz who inadvertently sets in motion events that could lead to thermonuclear war. Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy make a cute and likeable couple and it's an unusual mix of intelligence and fun. One of the best teen movies of the 80s.

Even though the technology behind this film might be dated, the high concepts of war and politics it deals with still seem relevant. Many classic lines and movie moments abound.
