The Impossible Movie Review

Hi, people! So, it's me again. Well, instead of giving good books to recommend, so I decided to give a review about a movie. basically, it's a movie based on a true story. Well, don't expect romance in this movie since it's all about a journey of a family in surviving tsunami in Thailand. So, here's the summary about this movie:

A terrifying and emotional story based on one family’s experience of the 2004 tsunami, THE IMPOSSIBLE is a compelling account of perseverance and survival in the face of unimaginable disaster and chaos.

MARIA (Naomi Watts), HENRY (Ewan McGregor) and their three sons begin their winter vacation in Thailand looking forward to a few days in tropical paradise.  But on the morning of December 26th, as the family relaxes around the pool after their Christmas festivities the night before, a terrifying roar rises up from the center of the earth.  As Maria freezes in fear, a huge wall of black water races across the hotel grounds toward her.

Henry grabs the two youngest boys, SIMON and THOMAS, but it’s too late: the wave smashes into him with incredible force and dislodges his grip.  Maria is pushed underwater, where she is crushed and battered by debris to the brink of death.  She finally surfaces in a raging black sea, which has completely submerged her three-story hotel and the surrounding landscape.  Maria gasps for breath, while she tries to understand what has just happened, convinced that her family has been obliterated in the blink of an eye.  But then, her eldest son, LUCAS (Tom Holland), surfaces a few meters ahead in the wild flood.  Face-to-face with something unexpected and incomprehensible, she must fight against all odds for her child’s survival.  And her own.

Based on a true story, THE IMPOSSIBLE is the unforgettable account of a family caught, with tens of thousands of strangers, in the mayhem of one of the worst natural catastrophes of our time.  But the true-life terror is tempered by the unexpected displays of compassion, courage and simple kindness that Maria and her family encounter during the darkest hours of their lives.  Both epic and intimate, devastating and uplifting, THE IMPOSSIBLE is a journey to the core of the human heart.

Well, overall it's a good movie for everyone to watch since the main point in this movie is about the strong bond of the family. It's kind of tragic to get into a traumatic incident especially tsunami! Just imagine if we and our family get trap into the horrible tsunami, for me, it IS impossible to get back with our love ones. In a nutshell, The Impossible is a movie that should be watched because there is a lot moral values that we can get based from the movie.

Well, that's all from me and please be patient for the next interesting update.
