Siberian Apocalypse
Siberian Apocalypse
This astounding documentary delves into the mysteries of the Tunguska event – one of the largest cosmic disasters in the history of civilisation. At 7.15 am, on 30th June 1908, a giant fireball, as bright the sun, exploded in the sky over Tunguska in central Siberia. Its force was equivalent to twenty million tonnes of TNT, and a thousand times greater than that of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima in 1945. An estimated sixty million trees were felled over an area of over two thousand square kilometres - an area over half the size of Rhode Island. If the explosion had occurred over London or Paris, hundreds of thousands of people would have been killed.

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

A gorgeous film. The scenes of the Cayman Islands are lush and inviting. The story has an expected outcome but nevertheless is quite pleasing in its development. The conflict between the big city slicker who tries to lure a second-rate actor with a failing TV series into duping the locals into parting with their beautiful natural land is true to form. How our hero has a change of heart is the core of the plot. His turnaround is what drives the film, nobly aided by the raw beauty of the Islands. The camera work and sound track add extra oomph to this film. There are some surprises that add to the film's novelty. I was very impressed with the stunning color and want to go to the Cayman Islands "in person". I want to be a part of nature as it exists there. I think that is the strength of this film. It's a feel good movie for all ages.

I am a chick who tends to avoid joyful, non-violent films but I did and would again and again make an exception for Cayman Went.I saw Cayman Went at the AMC Empire 25 in Times Square over the weekend and am going back to see it again tonight. There is something so intriguing to me about this film.The story follows the hottie hero Michael Lombardi who is a flailing TV star on the brink of losing his show. He is solicited by the magnate who owns the network to convince some Cayman Brac locals to sell their land to the magnate for development in to a mega-resort. After spending some time with the locals, our hero hooks into the island lifestyle and learns a lot about himself and those around him along the way.The serenity of the Cayman Brac beaches, the underwater landscapes, the eye-catching hero and the chemistry he has with the female lead, the charisma of Jeffrey Demunn, the adorableness of the film's child star, the upbeat soundtrack, the subtle message of the film...it somehow all comes together for me.Enjoy!

Cayman Went is a great, feel-good movie for audiences of all ages. The scenery is stunning and will have you wanting to jump on a plane and head directly to the Caymans. The characters are likable (and you may even find amusement from a few quirky "locals"). I took a special interest in the environmental message in the film, which, in a World where people are so environmentally conscious these days, it's overall message is "on point.". You will laugh....you may even cry a bit (if you are an emotional person), but in the end you will leave the theater smiling and feeling good about the film and maybe even man-kind in general. It will have you believing that there are still good, compassionate people out there. There really is something in this film for everyone!
