San Andreas

About This Movie

So, 'San Andreas' brings that disaster flick vibe with some genuine tension. You’ve got Dwayne Johnson as this rescue chopper pilot, and he really carries the weight of the film - it's almost like he is the calm in the storm, you know? The pacing is pretty relentless, like the earthquakes that keep hitting. The practical effects are decent, especially the destruction scenes; they nail that apocalyptic feel without going completely overboard with CGI. Themes of family and survival run through it, which adds a layer of emotional stakes amid the chaos. It’s not groundbreaking or anything, but it does deliver that thrill and some solid performances. Worth a look for fans of the genre.
