Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016) by Mistermendonca — 28 Dec 2016

Well I don't tend to write reviews even tho I probably should more often but I felt I NEEDED to write one for this work of art.

First off this was one movie I didn't care to see, but to to say there wasn't tears down my face at the end would be a lie. This movie is one of the most intense movies this year. Peter Berg has a dramatic way of involving you within the gritty intense action that was based on a true event that happened not to long ago. His camera work made things feel not forced and the amount of CGI was exactly what we needed. He didn't overpower the effects and at times made it seem so very real as if it was an actually webcam type device that was within the pipeline itself.

The acting from all angles was prestigious. They were all very well done for the limited about of development shown. Everyone from Russell, Wahlberg, Malkovich, & Gina Rodriguez made you feel what the emotions they where conveying. Like I said there wasn't much of character development but some how that wasn't needed because in the end you felt for every single character even the ones in one or two scenes. This movie over all was just WOW bringing substance and character to an extremely sad event within our lifetime. Highly recommend this movie and I will give it an 8.2 out of 10.
