A summer hit that would surely make the whole family anticipate at the edge of their seat, 'San Andreas' is the perfect movie for the thrill and drama savvy. This disaster movie starred by Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson is plotted in the big city of Los Angeles, where a tragic earthquake shatters the rest of the city and perishes countless of lives.
Element of Rescue
Ray Gaines, played by Johnson, is a helicopter rescue pilot who does all his might to save his family from the angry rush of the waters and the fiery destruction that would cause his family's lives. Stunning rescue moves from The Rock come into play, along with true-to-life effects that would leave viewers stunned. According to a review by Marcus Goh at sg.movies.yahoo.com, Ray's character gives him a chance to showcase his rescue prowess true to his given background. Athleticism appears in The Rock's moves as he swings and swerves through dangerous events.
Togetherness and Family
Just like any other action disaster film, 'San Andreas' does not do away with one thing when disaster comes: unity. Ray reconnects with estranged wife, Emma (Carla Gugino), to save their daughter, Blake (Alexandra Daddario); an emotional disconnect regains in order to save the only one they both love. Citizens of the City of Angels also aid one another in salvation. Disaster knows no mercy, and as who should know this earthquake won't stop anytime soon? It would be 'everybody.'
Intricate Weave of Action and Drama
With a crunch of action in every bit of second, 'San Andreas' surely never fails one in a ride for a roller coaster of emotions. According to rottentomatoes.com, the masterly special effects, great cast, and before-its-too-late passion embedded in every moment justify the said factors. It entails a sense of destruction that would lead to a renewed relationship that was once upon a time broken.
With a movie this good, there would be least chance you wouldn't be entertained.
