THE IMPOSSIBLE (Theatrical Release USA 2012)

 Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.3|5.0 Starsìììì

The Impossible—dramatic disaster film—bases itself on a true survival story. The exceptionally realistic film keeps interest from its opening scene to its ending scene, plays all the elements of a disaster movie to the fullest, and tells its story well. Casting choices of Ewan McGregor and Naomi Watts are the best choices for the movie as are the child casting of Tom Holland, Samuel Joslin, and Oaklee Pendergast. Good addition to the film is young Johan Sundberg. Great portrayal and great acting by all involved.
