(Not a) Disaster (movie?)
23 August 2022
No pun intended - as you may know by know (if this isn't my first review you read), I am not reading too much before I watch a movie. So a lot of times, I have no idea what I am about to watch exactly. So when the movie began and some real footage was shown, I thought I'd be seeing a documentary. Of course that switches quite quickly and we get into fictional storytelling after that.

And what a great human drama is being told. If you are into the human survival kind of thing - if you like the stakes being as high as possible ... well you have quite the movie here. If you are thinking of the enviroment you may have quite a lot of issues with how things are being resolved of course. But it is a movie and the things we see are digital effects - which is a good thing, because I'd hate for all that mayhem to be real. There is enough real disasters in the world - we don't need more just to film a movie - even if it is good one - with a lot of drama and great acting.
