The Impossible



"The Impossible" is one of the most emotionallly powerful films you will watch this year! Directed by Juan Antonio Bayona, this film's first 15 minutes is excruciatingly suspenseful as you anticpate the horrific tragedy to come.  Once the water hits, you are swept away into a impactful story of bravery, courage, perseverance, and hope.

Based on a true story, The Impossible details the events of a British family on vacation in Thailand during the tragic tsunami that devasted Southeast Asia in December of 2004.

Naomi Watts and Ewan McGregor deliver emotional performances in a must-see movie that reminds me of what people are capable of (good and bad) in the face of unthinkable circumstances. 

I give it a solid B+.
