Fukushima 50

( there been people making multiple accounts rating bombing negative review on this site... no reason to care anymore rate like or neg reviews people do this to make a statement their own person basis(s)) to them its a game.

................. When this happened, it was unreal. Nothing in my years have experienced could help me better understand this. The earth quack was first. But after the meltdown everyone in Tokyo was told the radiation clouds winds hit us. There was no escape. But as the winds changed it was then safe. This movie is low budget, but does that matter? No, what is the people that gave their self's to help stop this. Its just not the 50 but the 10,000s that hurt by the fallout. What sad is this current virus prevented this movie to get this respect it should get. Its a must see. Thank you.

A sobering view of the disaster, and a reminder of what happened to the people there and what they did. Well-produced throughout, and with good acting from all. There is a little family drama but it is not overdone and fits the situation. It's very interesting to see the Japanese culture and approach to the events.

Being Engineer, I think Power Generators should be located at height & backwards ( not sea facing ). May save the Blast which happened at Nuclear Site in Fukushima in 2011 duebto Tsunami.

Surprisingly, the movie has no pre-disaster story about a random family, lovers, or civilians. It starts by providing all the attention to the incident, like a documentary with a clear timeline.

If you're familiar with the Japanese culture, you will not say the movie is full of overacting & chaotic screams, cause there are none. The discipline of the plant employees and their sense of responsibility implied throughout the movie is heartwarming.

As we get to hear, it was a disaster that happened due to underestimating nature. But the effort they take to prevent it from happening feels real. Those people who actually worked in the plant are heroes.

The acting is fine, realistic. If you could live in there for 2 hours, you'll feel your tears streaming down at some point in the movie.

Reactors and their issues ... well actually it is us humans who have the issues, when those reactors have "incidents". Man made, nature made (although one may argue that man is responsible for a lot of the nature catastrophes) or however else ... these things happen! Now I am not an engineer or an expert, so I can't say if or how this would have been possible to avoid.

I can say that the movie is quite tension filled and shows us personal heroism - something you may expect from Japanese and something we have seen in a TV show about Tschernobyl too. Good actors and quite the harrowing retelling of what occured. I do expect there to be a bit of exaggeration to say the least ... but what movie does not do that? Even documentaries heighten certain things for better effect. Real life Drama, real life "heroes" ...
