Please don't spend money on this.
Brilliant and touching
Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Everyone involved in making this film should be embarrassed. I'm embarrassed for having watched it.I'm watching it with my parents. We were going to watch The Life Of Brian. Has anyone got a time machine I could borrow please?
Really well portrayed for real life events, great acting. Very entertaining
Playing like an earlier cousin of The Wave, The Impossible follows a family's survival during a tsunami wave whilst on vacation. Boasting an early turn by future Spiderman Tom Holland, we see him hold his own against Ewan McGregor & Naomi Watts as he navigates his passage from needy, feckless youth to unabashed adult. J.A. Bayona, now holding the reins of the next Jurassic World flick, has a handle on making the epic intimate & the small grandiose. A welcome respite in a cinematic world which gives us tripe like San Andreas & most of Roland Emmerich's disaster output.
The movie was so perfect, I couldn't think of anything better. Tom holland portrayed his character so perfectly. A beautiful tragic tale.
