That movie was in fact forbidden in UK, because it would make people more scared than necessary - and was not given a free pass, before the mid 1990s, when the fear for a nuclear was had subsided somehow in Europe. After 1991, when USSR kind of split into 15 new states - the fear of nuclear attack was less prominent in the mind of most people...
But, nuclear weapons is indeed a danger to the world, even today - maybe more today as the possibility of small impoverish country's like DKPR will test the limits - and maybe accidentally go all the way to prove itself - as the young Kim Jung Un seen to be willing to do - could end up in a nuclear exchange between parties
