The Impossible




Cast: Naomi Watts, Ewan McGregor, Tom Hollan(Lucas),Samuel Joslin(Thomas), Oaklee Pendergast(Simon)
Director: Juan Antonio Bayona
Genre: Adventure, Family Drama

A very soul steering movie. What makes it even more touching is that its a true story

Pluses:
  • The movie belongs to Naomi Watts and Tom Holland equally. Both of them play their roles beautifully with absolute justice.This kid there has a huge potential. Not even for a moment do you feel that the whole depiction is just an enactment
  • Negating my expectations, the movie wasnt too very slow. There was in fact a lot of adrenalin rush every other moment, when you are just so unsure about whats happening next
  • A round of applause to the Director, Juan Antonio, if not for the presentation, the movie would look like any other tale of victims of natural catastrophe's around the world over the decades
  • Kudos to the script and narrators of course, every small detailing were taken care of. Absolutely nothing was on the fly
  • Rest of the cast didnt have too much of adventure or struggle for surival, so they didnt share a lot of screen space, but were good at their respective parts. Kids were specially too cute
  • The story is a tale of high endurance and the will to live. Watch it to realize the lost love amongst your near and dear ones
  • Last but not the least, 3 Cheers to the original survivors of the catastrophe and alive to share their tale

Minuses:

They never failed in covering every detail for the main characters Naomi and Holland, i wish they could cover a bit more detailing on the survivial of the other three as well, what horror they went through, if not in detail to avoid repeatedness but at least in short


My rating: 4/5
