10 - The Impossible

Based on a true story, of one family who survived the deadliest tsunami tragedy in history. Naomi Watts and Ewan Mcgreggor plays the parents of three young boys on a holiday in Thailand when this catastrophe occurred. The first scenes,the resort, snapshots of flowers, insects, animals, and the pristine coastline and clear blue waters, its a paradise.

Then the shock of an event no one saw to happen. Everything turns into a big whirl pool. A washing machine. This scene was like the movie Hereafter, but longer and harder to observe. Imagine yourself in current, heavy waves, trying to get afloat, swallowing water, earth, rubble and what not. Anything you can imagine. Its crazy and scary.

The film traverses to the impossible, literally, that all of them survived. This was done in less drama but the visual to real and unbelievable to talk it to be impossible too. So the impossible happened and this was not short of a miracle.
