Great film

Rating: 7/10 (19 January 2013)

The Impossible is a film that focuses on a families experience of the South East Asia Tsunami in 2004. This is a true story and when the film starts with an insight into the family on Christmas day everybody knows what is about to happen.
Although the Tsunami sequence plays an important part of the film, the majority of the film focuses on the aftermath. The arrival of the Tsunami was nicely done and there's no doubt that the sudden arrival of it will have been that many people experienced it. Ewan McGregor and Naomi Watts play the lead roles and it was great to see McGregor put in a good performance. The film is best when it focuses on the kindness of people towards each other. Very entertaining.
