Garbage show not to mention showing the white father lead in the show as weak and feeble. Shows the other white father bacon as a rural gun toting nut in a bad light. Then saying not to trust white people. Then showing the white wife as really wanting some bbc from a strong black man portrayed in the show. Garbage show. I will day though, most movies, commercials, shows portray the white man as a weak, bumbling idiot nowadays

Why in the fricking world would the Obama's produce a movie about our country getting Nuked and losing all forms of communication
Obama, born in Kenya, was raised to hate colonialism. By both parents
Nuking a former colony in on brand. And what BHO meant when he said he wanted to totally transform America. A nuke sorta does that, right?

So now you're mad that they're stereotyping the white liberal dude as weak? Is there anything that doesn't offend you snowflakes?

How would you depict a NYC, liberal professor type?

I would disagree...he was the one that was prepared and had some inkling of what was going on...and he helped them out.

How would you depict a "woke" young black girl from NYC? And she ultimately along with her father worked with the white family. It was one line from a character that fit the mold.
Overall I thought the movie was boring with an unsatisfying end.

I watched it several days ago before I had heard anything about the Obamas' involvement in it. Might not have watched it had I heard that before hand.
Hardly the best movie I have ever seen but I put it in the same category as the 80s film, The Day After. It feels like the 2023 version of The Day After as far has tapping into a realistic, apocalyptic scenario that could play out based on technological advancements and geopolitical tensions.
I didn't catch any extreme leftwing or rightwing turns to the story. I already had some prepper tendencies but the movie has motivated me to get back to working out and thinking about preparing more for the type of situation presented in the film.
I was pissed at the ending but a friend pointed out that the ending was probably done the way it was to leave it open for a sequel or Part 2.

Then girl says ship is still getting closer and parents take the longest time to look up and then slowly utter words about how odd it is… People don’t act like this
Yes they do. Even worse, they stop and record it.
In the tsunami, tens of thousands perished for looking at the water retreat, and noting it's oddity.

Tsunamis are rare. Something like the Christmas Day tsunami in 2004 catches people off guard. But a giant cargo ship, aimed directly at a public beach, in clear seas and weather, that's not what anyone would expect. In this scene specifically, they see it off in the distance, and then a short time later, look up and it's clearly getting VERY close, and that doesn't jar them to their senses? That's not how humans work. Sorry, it just isn't.

The slower impending doom comes, the less reactive humans are.
Sure, to scale I kinda agree, that thing is probably moving fast enough (maybe). But in general a decent margin of people will stare at their doom until it consumes them. Look at all the fatties. If the fight or flight response isn't tipped off, they'll stand there.
Psychologically we glitch deer in headlights to many things that are just outside of expectation.

Not dismissing it entirely, but what really got me was the dialogue. They stretched the scene out excessively so just to build the drama. They SEE the ship has gotten closer and is headed directly towards them. That alone should sparked a "Hey! Is that gonna crash?", but instead we get lazy, slow, dumbfoundedness by all involved. No one, not the little girl, not the wife (who at least should be freaking out some) is hinting at any level of concern until it's really fricking obvious the ship is headed right towards them.
Ships going back and forth along the beach isn't all that novel. Sometimes big ships do pass by fairly close, but not when they're making a B line directly for the shore.
I guess it's one of my pet peeves, where movies or shows expect the audience to suspend every bit of their human experience and beliefs to buy into any scenario like that as being believable. It's lazy and annoying.

Dan Bongino says the Obamas know something.

Per Steve Bannon’s Warroom, there is a line in the movie that you can’t trust white people.
They played a clip and it’s unreal.
But it’s ok to have a colored only Christmas party run by the black Boston mayor, or whatever race she identifies with today.
