There is no time to waste when an unidentified intercontinental ballistic missile bound for the US is detected; in under 20 minutes, it is on course to strike Chicago. Top-level government personnel spring into action to avert a crisis that, until now, was largely hypothetical. A brilliant ensemble cast (including Rebecca Ferguson, Idris Elba, Anthony Ramos, Jared Harris, and Tracy Letts) channels panic, composure, and quiet distress in equal measure. Known for high-stakes thrillers like The Hurt Locker and Zero Dark Thirty, Kathryn Bigelow once again combines kineticism and realism to craft an immersive, gripping portrait of doomsday in motion. The unmistakable plausibility of the scenario lends this apocalyptic vision a chilling immediacy.

2025. USA. Directed by Kathryn Bigelow. Screenplay by Noah Oppenheim. With Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson, Gabriel Basso. DCP courtesy Netflix. 112 min.
