Heart Wrenching And Realistic

Rating: 7/10 (28 May 2013)

You will experience the full gamut of emotions as you travel on this roller-coaster ride. Fear, shock, anger, joy and euphoria just to name a few, and keep the hankies close by as you can't help but empathize with the victims and survivors of this brutal tragedy. This story was well told and even riveting at times. It is easy to watch footage of a natural disaster on TV and not be affected by it. This movie really hit home hard and gives you a deeper understanding of the suffering and struggle that is involved in the aftermath of such an event. As usual, Ewan Mcgregor and Naomi Watts were at the top of their game, but it was young Tom Holland who impressed more than anyone. This well acted drama is definitely worth watching.
