As an artistic medium, film has long had many discussions and criticisms on this issue. Today, I will bring you ten movies related to "nuclear", let us have a deep understanding of this "harvester of life" - nuclear.
1. "Love in Hiroshima", 1959
Director: Alan Renai
Writers: Margaret Duras
Starring: Emma Niwa / Eiji Okada
Douban 8.6 IMDb 8.0
Alan Ray is his feature film debut. Marking the shift of Western cinema from classicism to modernism, written by Margaret Duras, who also belongs to the Left Bank faction, Renai cross-edits the Hiroshima atomic bomb documentary with the erotic passage in the film, combines personal suffering with the catastrophe of war through the love story between a French actress and a Japanese architect, and explores "love", "anti-war", "time and forgetfulness", "reason and emotion", and achieves a balance between film and literature.
2. "Dr. Strange Love", 1964
Directed By: Stanley Kubrick
Writers: Stanley Kubrick / Terry Sozeen
Starring: Peter Cyrus / George C. Scott
Douban 8.8 IMDb 8.4
John Pike, a big name in international security and military intelligence analysis in the United States, once said, "Everything about nuclear strategy can be learned from Dr. Strange Love." Director Kubrick read nearly 50 books on nuclear war for the film. Together with "2001 Odyssey in Space" and "Clockwork Orange", it is called the "Future Trilogy". It tells that the American general suspected that the "decadent ideas" of the CPSU were poisoning the American people, so he took a nuclear warhead to the Soviet Union to carry out a devastating nuclear strike. The Soviet side learned that it immediately called the President of the United States that if the territory was attacked, it would press the "doomsday device" at all costs. A war on the fate of all mankind and the entire earth has quietly and absurdly begun...

Douban 8.8 IMDb 8.1
The last masterpiece directed by the famous Soviet film master Andrei Tarkovsky before his death, when filming, Tarkovsky was bedridden with cancer, and death threatened Tarkovsky at any time. Thanks to the help of Bergman's old partner photographer Sven Newcastle, the film was completed. It tells the story of Alexander's desire to prevent the "Third World War" from saving the world in the context of nuclear destruction, and then setting fire to his house, looking forward to the new life of the world, his own new life...
4. "Goodbye" 1984

In the near future, due to the explosion of nuclear power plants, most of Japan's territory is under the threat of heavy nuclear radiation. At the critical juncture, the Japanese government was forced to make a "declaration of renunciation," and Japanese nationals fled abroad one after another in the order of the list. As a refugee, Tanya is ranked lower, and beside her, her childhood friend robot Leona is also left in this desperate land.

Director: Yuan Ziwen
Writers: Yuan Ziwen
Starring: Natsu yagi Akira / Otani Naoko
Douban 6.8 IMDb 6.6
Directed by Yuen Zi-wen, the film tells the story of the tsunami and nuclear leak that followed a sudden and powerful earthquake in Japan, which triggered a crisis that was no less than the Great East Japan Earthquake. The land of the four-member family of Nagashima Prefecture, which is a cheese farmer and the Suzuki family, which runs agriculture, is divided into evacuation areas. During this uneasy time, the couple, who are giving birth to a new life, are faced with the choice of living away from this familiar land. The film's Nagashima is a fictional place whose name comes from a combination of Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and Fukushima, so it also has the intention of alluding to the original explosion.
6. "There Are Eyes Across the Mountain", 2006
Director: Alexander Aga
Writers: Wes Craven / Alexander Aga

Douban 6.7 IMDb 6.4
A more violent film. It tells the story of an elderly couple who take their family on a long road trip across the border to celebrate their wedding anniversary. The journey gradually enters the long yellow sand and deserted area, and while resting from a night camp, they are attacked by a group of monsters... It seems that there was once a base for the abandoned US military to develop nuclear weapons.
7. Latter-day danger, 2009
Directed By: John Hillcott
Writers: Joe Penhauer / Comac McCarthy
Starring: Vigo Mortensen / Curtie Smit-McPhee
Douban 7.7 IMDb 7.2
The film is a thriller directed by John Hillcott and starring Vigo Mortson of Green Book and charlize Theron, the goddess of sexiness. The film discusses the question: Is "goodness" still necessary in a hopeless world? In the desperate future under the end of the world, the world is like a huge ruin, and everywhere you look is desolate and gray.

8. "Isolation", 2011
Director: Xavier Jeans
Writers: Kyle Mueller / Eron Sheean

Douban 6.7 IMDb 5.8
After a catastrophic nuclear explosion in New York City, eight strangers hid in the basement of an apartment building. The 8 people complained to each other, suspected each other, and killed each other. Where will they go in the face of catastrophe, unknown aggression and mutual conflict? This film integrates elements of disaster, thriller, science fiction, horror, etc., and brings together the two super male protagonists in the American drama "Heroes", which is very ornamental.
9. Godzilla 2014
Director: Gary Edwards
Writers: Max Bollenstein / Dave Callaham
Starring: Aaron Taylor-Johnson / Cameron CJ Adams
Douban 6.5 IMDb 6.4
The film is almost creating an epic story of Godzilla because we see its origins, development, and strength continue to grow. "Godzilla" uses machines to build up a monster-fighting visual effect, which undoubtedly contributes to a real feast of visual effects in the eyes of the audience. At the same time, the pessimism of the end-time human beings caught off guard also fills the entire film.
10 Pandora, 2016
Director: Park Jeong-woo
Writers: Park Jeong-woo
Starring: Kim Nam-joo / Kim Joo-hyun
Douban 7.6 IMDb 6.7
After the Earthquake on the Korean Peninsula, it triggered the explosion of atomic power station No. 1 in the Busan area. Massive earthquakes triggered a leak of radioactive materials that left the Korean Peninsula in a state of chaos and panic. The film's director, Park Chung-woo, revealed that he had the idea of filming because of the Fukushima nuclear leak in Japan in 2011. Because the film involves the earthquake disaster in South Korea, it is more sensitive and under pressure from many aspects, and the production time before and after is as long as 4 years.
