Really well done drama disaster movie

I found this to be a pretty well done drama disaster movie that I watched. The movie is more of a drama than a disaster movie since it more of an aftermath of the disaster. But I think it works by showing the damage the earthquake cause to a city and how it affects the people. It shows how this is a serious topic with the destroy city, people helping each others, losing love ones, and even looters. There are a couple of plotlines in the movie that works out well with the theme and how effective it is with the tone of the movie. The characters are mostly simple and have a simple arc to them. Also, the dubbing isn't that good. I found the music to be good, but it feel like they are reusing it throughout the movie. I want to mention the disaster scenes that looks pretty great on how realistic it looks and how terrifying it is to be in the same spot as the characters.Earthquake is a great movie that does a great job on how it handles its tone.

tragedy. I was there

No film can convey that horror. I was 17 years old. I was afraid to watch it for a long time. But I wanted to show my children what I went through. Of course, you can shoot a lot of scenes. Everyone has their own terror in their souls. But, well filmed. It was as if I had moved back. I cried for two days. We still don't know the exact number of victims. And our "neighbors" Azerbaijans were very happy for our earthquake and they celebrated it. On the trains carrying with the aid from other coutrys, the Azeris wrote "Congratulations with the earthquake."-- A lot of things there were, in one film its inpossible ti show- Very good casr, good music- THANK YOU.
