Standard Format, New visuals.

So as far as originality this doesn't stray too far from the path that had been laid out by countless movies and Drama Specials before it. Survivors guilt and the Soldier that can't deal with being home. What it does change is the Soldier is not the focus, but more of a side character. The focus is the science race for the atom bomb.

What does stand out is the visuals at the end, it has less sanitized scenes of after the bomb fell. You can almost smell the air and feel the despair, but also humans just moving on, dealing with things no matter how horrific.
