(This review may contain spoilers).
I’ve seen a number of disaster movies and in some ways, I think this film is a bit similar to The Day After Tomorrow. I don’t think it’s too similar, but there were some elements they shared.
I felt that this film did really well with the characters. I could believe in the father and sons aspects and there were some really intense, moving scenes.
I recognised some of the actors in the film, too, but even the ones I didn’t recognise, I felt played their characters well.
There were a few amusing moments in the film that helped to break up the tension, particularly one that was right at the end. The serious moments worked really well, though.
I’m sure that a lot of this film wasn’t scientifically accurate, but I still found it entertaining viewing. The effects worked really well and although I felt the cameras used inside the film made it a bit disjointed at times, it also provided the interesting experience of feeling like a part of the film.
I think I would probably watch this film again sometime in the future.
