Reviews
When you go to watch a disaster
film, remember you're not going in there for the plot. You're going in there
for the special effects and incredible moments of tension.
Does 'San Andreas' deliver these core elements? Yes, very much so.
In one word, the movie feels 'tight', as in tightly made. No needless exposition, or characters that shouldn't be there, everything on the screen works for it's place. The actors look natural in their roles. Dwayne Johnson surprised me with his abilities as an actor, the emotions of his character were real. In fact, he was the best of the lot. The special effects are done well. For a moment I thought to myself 'they've really taken time to get it right and make it realistic to a real earthquake or tsunami' because they have. Again, the plot is not the core element but it works. I won't say anything about it, except for this; while it's something we've seen before, it's done well and made interesting.
It's been an hour since I walked out of the cinema, so having chewed this movie in my mind, I could recommend it to anyone.
