The Wave (movie recommendation)
« on: March 24, 2016, 07:16:24 PM »


Best disaster movie I've seen in years. Mostly because they avoided many typical movie tropes and the characters, for the most part, acted rationally. Also, something like this will happen one day in Geiranger. Just a matter of time...

Check it out if you like disaster movies.

It looks pretty well done, G.  +1 that it's based on actual geology (historical).

Documentary: Made for educational purposes.

Disaster movie: Made for entertainment.

Learning the difference may prevent future faux pas...  :aok
