    5.0 out of 5 stars A prophesy of things to come?
    Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2025

    The concept of a "learning" computer was made real by Hopfield's PNAS paper and other work in the mid 1980's, for which he received the Nobel prize in physics last year. This movie predated the paper that introduced the "Hopfield net" and is quite prophetic. Especially considering we are now, in 2025, looking at European countries that seem to be convinced that they can start a nuclear war and win it. Whatever "win" means. The idea that AI in a country's military computers can take over command is quite disturbing. The general in this movie took it on himself to do the right thing. In a more modern scenario he may not be able to do that.

    This movie revolves around two teenagers who discover the world is in danger of a world war, because a computer that controls the missiles in the USA has not played enough games to learn that there is no winner in a worldwide nuclear war, just death. The teens save the day, with the help of the inventor.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Introduced Me to Computers and Modems
    Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    I love WarGames so much, and Matthew Broderick does such a fantastic job in his role, that I get really nostalgic for those good old days before the Web. Broderick's character is a bored computer nerd in the early '80s with a sweet computer system and 300 baud modem which he uses to dial into places like his school system to change his grades. When he hears about a computer game coming out, he can't wait and sets his modem to "war dial" mode, auto dialing telephone numbers within a certain prefix so he can hack into the gaming company's computer to get this great new game. In the process, he finds that he succeeds and has broken into a high security system where he unknowingly finds himself in the Defense Department's main computer. He thinks he's in the game company's computer and is only looking for games, and he finds one amazing sounding one called "Global Thermonuclear War." He asks the computer to play it with him and he takes the side of the Russians, gleefully launching nuclear missile attacks at cities throughout America. Meanwhile, the staff at NORAD is freaking out, thinking the Russians have launched and they go on high alert, ready to launch American missiles in response. Broderick shuts down his computer before the "game" ends and the missiles disappear from NORAD's computers. They don't know what happens, so a huge manhunt takes place to find out what's going on and who the source of the hack is. I won't go any further, but to say that in my opinion, this is a great action movie and the plot moves along quite well. Even though some of the film isn't totally realistic, enough of it was cutting edge enough to make you believe as you sat in the movie theater, and let's not forget that the Cold War was still a reality, so it was a frightening movie. After seeing this movie, I started accessing BBS's around the country and using my modem to war dial prefixes myself, and enjoyed "shaking hands" with many other computers around the world. It was an awesome experience, and I think today's computer geeks will never know the true excitement generated by old school hacking and phreaking. It's just different today, and today's hackers are malicious, which was never the intent back then. This is a great film, very enjoyable, and if you're into computers, it's definitely one to watch. I never get tired of it. Highly recommended.

    Es un clásico moderno.
    La ví en el cine y posteriormente en video la ví muchas veces más.
    Aún hoy en día la disfruté enormemente. No se siente pasada de moda.
    La calidad de audio y video es buena. Sobre todo si consideramos que la tecnología de los ochentas todavía estaba en pañales.
    Lo que más me gustó fue el documental sobre cómo la hicieron, que venía como material adicional. Tenía muy buena información y no abusaron de los clips de la película como ocurre con otros documentales.
    La duración fue exacta, y en general está muy bien hecho. Muchas veces viene información poco relevante y es muy aburrido. Pero en este caso estuvo estupendo.
