Shop For Tidal Wave

In spite of what the other reviewer has stated,the South Korean film "Tidal Wave" is a disaster movie!And a very touching and
heartfelt one at that!!!!!Unlike most of your typically-mindless
Hollywood blockbuster fare,you get a great character driven story
before the special effects galore happen(aka: disaster)!The first hour and at least 15 to 20 minutes of the film are all about the main characters and focuses on what really drives them and makes
them tick.The story is set in Haeundae,South Korea and focuses on
the upper class,the middle class,and the lower class workers around
the beach area and the city itself and their characters are developed in very interesting ways and the last 40 minutes of the
film is when the MEGA-TSUNAMI strikes the paradise resort city and
focuses on not only just who makes it and who doesn't but also how their lives are completely changed afterwards!There is also dashes
here and there of humor scattered throughout the film just to keep
you from getting too upset.The special effects are truly eye popping and mind blowing and is just as good if not SUPERIOR TO the tidal wave special effects that we've seen in Hollywood disaster movies like:"The Day After Tomorrow","Poseidon",and "2012"!The director of photography also captures some of
the most beautiful and lavish scenery I would never have imagined
existed in Haeundae,South Korea.Who knows how even more lavish and
beautiful it looks on blu-ray since I only have it on DVD.The DVD
special features include the following: deleted scenes,gag reel,the
making of Tidal Wave,and The Project.You can also watch the movie in its original Korean language with English subtitles or in an
English dubbed track.Personally,I prefer it in its original language with English subtitles.I hope this review was helpful.Get more detail about Tidal Wave.
