Review For Movie The Impossible
Alas, the movie tells a rather commonplace story.David Denby-New Yorker
The tsunami sequence is amazing, right up there with the one Clint Eastwood staged in Hereafter.
Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor
This is an unforgettable tribute to the determination of a very special family.
Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com
Naomi Watts gives one of her finest, most physically commanding turns.
Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post
Although it's ostensibly based on true events, The Impossible is not so much an inspiring tale of survival as it is an action flick.
Bilge Ebiri-New York Magazine
While it may have been changed for the screen, this story of a family's ordeal is one from which any parent - any person, really - can't turn away.
Connie Ogle-Miami Herald
Their story may not be typical, but the family represents the resilience, compassion, and optimism of the whole human race.
Eric D. Snider-EricDSnider.com
An emotionally-captivating and well-filmed true tale.
John Hanlon-Big Hollywood
A harrowing tale of perseverance and the search for safety amidst horrid destruction.
Wesley Lovell-Cinema Sight
As in a horror film, it doesn't matter anymore who these people are - only how they react.
Margot Harrison-Seven Days
Spanish director Juan Antonio Bayona exploits an international tragedy to tell a syrupy story about a wealthy white family dealing with adversity while completely ignoring the thousands of others who suffered as much or worse.
Al Alexander-The Patriot Ledger
Juan Antonio Bayona's The Impossible is an emotional tale of hope and survival, shot with an unafraid eye for disaster and tragedy.
Jeremy Lebens-We Got This Covered
... a terrific horror movie, one that genuinely grips and shocks its audience and forces empathy with the would-be victims.
Philip Martin-Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
Inexcusable is a better word to describe the fact this amazing film was not given a Best Picture Oscar nomination.
Bruce Bennett-Spectrum (St. George, Utah)
A tale that largely tells itself... with a little essential help from Hollywood's best special effects guys, that is.
Christopher Null-Film Racket
...come for the drama, just be ready to leave your nagging questions outside the theater.
Dave White-Movies.com
Technically impeccable, The Impossible gives the brutal caprice of nature its due, never romanticizing it or demonizing it.
Rob Gonsalves-eFilmCritic.com
The true stand-out performance comes from 16-year-old Holland, whose cinematic debut is nothing short of extraordinary.
Nour Habib-Tulsa World
The aim appears to be audience immersion, as if The Impossible really wants to almost drown you along with its stars - albeit in your own tears.
Matt Neal-The Standard
There's nothing much to this fact-based film, storywise...It's in the sheer resilience of the characters that the film finds its drive.
Jim Schembri-3AW
Perhaps the biggest problem is its labelling as a 'Disaster Movie', as this is in fact intended as a study of the power - and the stubbornness - of the human spirit.
David 'Mad Dog' Bradley-Rip It Up
The Impossible doesn't turn a blind eye to the physical and emotional devastation, but the comparatively uncomplicated path it follows to arrive at a reassuring conclusion minimizes the impact.
Mark Pfeiffer-Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema
If you're familiar with the true story on which 'The Impossible' is based, you'll know a little about the finale. In case you don't, I'm not going to spoil this real-life disaster movie about the effects of the 2004 Pacific tsunami on a family of five.
Linda Cook-Quad City Times (Davenport, IA)
Unlike a lot of movies that have the "based on a true story" tagline, 'The Impossible' doesn't have to do much to remind us that its harrowing tale is genuine
Dan Lybarger-KC Active
Director Juan Antonio Bayona spins the focus in on a single family caught up in the disaster, personalising the horror and bringing it home in unashamedly melodramatic fashion on its very own tidal wave of emotion.
