The Sum of All Fears

This film was reviewed by Dr. Barry Hummel of the Quit Doc Research and Education Foundation on July 9, 2010.

Additional Comments:  "The film had a balanced discussion of tobacco; in fact, one of the characters lights a cigarette while proclaiming 'I am told these things can kill you'.  However, that cannot possibly compare to the blatant tobacco product placement.  The nuclear bomb that is the centerpeice of the entire movie is contained inside of a cigarette machine, and during a slow pan shot to reveal the wires five different brands are seen clearly:  Marlboro, Camel, Kool, Winston, and Parlaiment."
