Instead of focusing on the fact that these two guys were engaged in preventing a nuclear holocaust and the difficulty that entails, the movie makers decide instead to focus on the emotional impact the situation had on the three main characters - how Wynne nearly loses a wife but picks up a BFF. Here we have one of the most critical events of the 20th century and all the movie makers seem to be concerned with are "muh feelz." Typical of movies recently, sadly.
