If you are reading this then you are considering watching this movie. I knew what I was getting into prior to my viewing. In my mind I thought this was just going to be a popcorn movie about the end of the world.
But once I saw it I began to understand what the writers or directors or whoever where getting at. If this is the end of the world what would you do to ensure your children survive.
Besides the fact that this was the first movie that I ever spent with my hand covering my mouth.... As a moviegoer I can suspend the disbelief of how this ONE man new what to do (because he listened to the nay-sayers) and I spent the entire time watching with my hand either over my mouth or wiping away tears.
This movie was meant to be just entertainment, however, it has basis in real fact that the world as we know it may change and we as humans much like the dinosaurs might not be around to see the result.
I don't know much about the movie industry but I can say that the last movie that I saw that pulled at my heart strings this much was Deep Impact. Just the idea of putting someone else's life in front of your's made me... stop and think and then be happy. It is the most I can ask for in a movie.
Go see it if you want to be entertained. If you are looking to be funny haha amused, then go see something else. Go see it if you want an actual depiction of what will most likely happen to people when the world gets turned upside down.
Most realistically you should see it and think... What would I do for the people I love most in this world.
That's what I did and the result was more then I could have asked for.
