Tsunami

I watch the latest Korean movie "Tsunami" on Monday. On Tuesday I brag about it. In the movie the tsunami is really scary. When I saw the water my eyes just grew bigger by itself and the NEXT day, a tsunami strike in the pacific taking 100 lives away. =(


The first part of the movie is about the 2004 super earthquake. They show the tsunami strike into Indonesia and the total live lost. Due to that major earthquake, the Korean scientist calculated that Korea is about to experience an earthquake soon which is in 2009 somewhere far out the sea. Because of that a tsunami is going to strike the coast of Korea.


After that part is a bit boring already. As usual all about love story. Somehow the Korean not good in acting love story eh. Until the last 30 minutes of the show, finally the earthquake stuck and the whole of Korea was shaken. But the most fake part is...... they never learn from the 2004 horror event. When the earthquake struck, everybody in the beach is still happily sunbathing and swimming. They only start to run when the saw the huge wave coming which is too late.

Overall, this movie is not a bad movie. You get to see how hard all the rescuers tried to rescue the victims after the first strike and so many was sacrificed to save the civilians from the second strike. Besides that, I noticed that most people did not only died from drowning or being drag back to the sea after the tsunami strike, most people died from electrical shock due to the cables on the road side touching waters. This movie really bring you to the original scene and make you feel like a victim.
