Review For The Impossible | |
Alas, the movie tells a rather commonplace story. David Denby-New Yorker The tsunami sequence is amazing, right up there with the one Clint Eastwood staged in Hereafter. Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor This is an unforgettable tribute to the determination of a very special family. Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com Naomi Watts gives one of her finest, most physically commanding turns. Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post Although it's ostensibly based on true events, The Impossible is not so much an inspiring tale of survival as it is an action flick. Bilge Ebiri-New York Magazine While it may have been changed for the screen, this story of a family's ordeal is one from which any parent - any person, really - can't turn away. Connie Ogle-Miami Herald Perhaps the biggest problem is its labelling as a 'Disaster Movie', as this is in fact intended as a study of the power - and the stubbornness - of the human spirit. David 'Mad Dog' Bradley-Rip It Up The Impossible doesn't turn a blind eye to the physical and emotional devastation, but the comparatively uncomplicated path it follows to arrive at a reassuring conclusion minimizes the impact. Mark Pfeiffer-Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema If you're familiar with the true story on which 'The Impossible' is based, you'll know a little about the finale. In case you don't, I'm not going to spoil this real-life disaster movie about the effects of the 2004 Pacific tsunami on a family of five. Linda Cook-Quad City Times (Davenport, IA) Unlike a lot of movies that have the "based on a true story" tagline, 'The Impossible' doesn't have to do much to remind us that its harrowing tale is genuine Dan Lybarger-KC Active Director Juan Antonio Bayona spins the focus in on a single family caught up in the disaster, personalising the horror and bringing it home in unashamedly melodramatic fashion on its very own tidal wave of emotion. Amber Wilkinson-Eye for Film There's some cringe-worthy stuff in this... and I say that to the film's credit. It's tough to watch at times. Matthew Toomey-ABC Radio Brisbane The Impossible reminds that no matter the odds, human kind has the potential to rise above adversity no matter how great, for the human spirit knows no bounds. Matthew Pejkovic-Matt's Movie Reviews South East Asian tsunami survival saga is a test of endurance Don Groves-sbs.com.au The most challenging aspect of disaster movies to make the disaster believable. But performances aren't all about screaming, and this cast does a remarkable job of convincing us of their complexities and humanity Andrew L. Urban-Urban Cinefile There are many powerful scenes in this true life and death scenario about the impact of the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami to one family, but none can match the potency of the scene when Henry (McGregor) borrows a mobile phone from a stranger to ring home Louise Keller-Urban Cinefile Profound & Touching Diana Saenger-ReviewExpress.com [B]rings a new heart to the disaster film, focusing not on the large scale of physical destruction but on the small scale of fragile, traumatized people amidst the unimaginable scale of the catastrophe... MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher Bayona has the uncanny ability to put viewers in the moment, allowing them to vividly experience the family's struggles. But for all his formidable skills and artistic vision, his compassion is distressingly myopic. Jeff Meyers-Metro Times (Detroit, MI) A more accurate name for this New Age disaster movie might be 'The Lucky' or 'The Coincidental.' If we accept the Brits' survival as something miraculous, what does that imply about the tens of thousands of Asians who were wiped out? John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) ... a story of resiliency and humanity that is somewhat overwrought but emotionally exhausting and ultimately powerful. Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com The tsunami is easily more effective than anything to come out of a Roland Emmerich disaster sequence. Nick Nunziata-CHUD The Impossible has enough going for it to earn a mild recommendation, but it's unfortunate that it ends up self-destructing as rapidly as one of those Mission: Impossible messages.
