Into the Storm is not only the perfect storm. It should rank as one of the best chill out movies I've seen in a long while.
The best thing about the movie is there is no villain in it, unless you hate your life so much that you see typhoons as your enemy.
The plot is nothing that will make you lose sleep and think seriously hard which is really the reason I loved it. Some movies expect you to understand the phenomenon of inter-galactic molecular combustion while discussing on the side how sheep cell can be replicated to produce the animal’s living carbon copy through the wonders of medical cloning. Let’s leave those movies to the intellectuals.
Into the Storm has refreshingly none of that BS, thank God. To put it simply, there are movies that thrive on the philosophy of film making where the less you think, the more you enjoy. And Into the Storm proved that philosophy once again.
There was a time 2012 was my number one disaster movie, a close second should be the Will Smith starred Independence Day. Well, the ranking has since changed and I should place Into the Storm on top with 2012 a distant second. That’s how good the movie is.
I urge you not to just believe me, but to see it for yourself. Watch it, for the love of God! For one, the movie was able to overcome my initial reluctance to pay money to see it considering that people like me have this natural tendency to be seriously skeptical of films that come out after a major disaster happens, which I feel are all about squeezing an otherwise unfortunate event of its commercial potentials to generate money.
