02/01/2012 This subject is very ironical.Fukushima tells us that nuclear power plants are not under control in Japan. The operation of nuclear power plants and the disposal of radioactive waste pertain to them is difficult, thus to abandon them is inconceivably costly. For or against nuclear power stations? it doesn't matter, this film is worth to see. See more 12/08/2011 OK but somewhat intense movie. See more Read all reviews
