Synopsis

In December 2004, close-knit family Maria, Henry and their three sons begin their winter vacation in Thailand. But the day after Christmas, the idyllic holiday turns into an incomprehensible nightmare when a terrifying roar rises from the depths of the sea, followed by a wall of black water that devours everything in its path. Though Maria and her family face their darkest hour, unexpected displays of kindness and courage ameliorate their terror.

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.
dana_ciurtean I realy enjoyed this movie, found the special effects to be great, lead actors were just brilliant. Loved it!
Sam AlMan I have to say that I stopped watching movies on disasters as they were not representing anything new.. these type of movies concentrate on actors and the disaster happening and forget about the characters emotions. In this movie I would like to say that I really got scared for the characters but I didn't.. what I felt mostly is.. inspiration!!... the characters are not super-humans but they made me feel that they are...we are as human can be super in time of stress.. we can appreciate our existence in time of stress.. that what I could get to see in this movie.. Every time I feel weak.. I would like to turn into such productions like this movie to show me that no situation is hard to pass.. everything has an end.. even hard situations!It is typical tear-jerking movie..but presented in a best way to get you (inspired!).. I recommend watching it completely in one set and not dividing it so you do not lose that emotional connection with the characters.
khalid-13602 The father is so ANNOYING I can't complete the movie !!!!
Mike LeMar I give this one a so-so rating. The movie as a whole, up to the end, is excellent. The climax/end, though, is so typical and stupid. There's no reason for the oldest brother to close the curtain to give his mom some privacy before he wanders off and you knew that move would play a factor in a minute because of course the dad would walk by and not be quite curious enough to see who's behind it. Then, when the son sees his dad down below, walking away through the crowd, all he has to do is yell his name and his dad, along with everyone else, would hear him. Yelling "Dad" would probably work, or even better, his name. He didn't have to keep wandering around the place silently until letting enough frustration build up in him to finally do it. Once he knows his dad's there, he should just start yelling for him, calling for him, and there would've been much less suspense and worry. That's just common sense.
