Whang Yee Ling The Straits Times (Singapore) This environmental thriller is nuclear-level bang for your buck -- big, unsubtle entertainment. Rated: 3/5 Nov 7, 2024 Full Review Casey Chong Casey's Movie Mania A melodramatic but reasonably engaging radiation-disaster thriller. Rated: 3/5 Nov 7, 2024 Full Review James Marsh Deadline Hollywood Daily Cesium Fallout bombards its audience with a cacophony of mindless destruction and muddled messaging, yet somehow fails to illustrate just what it is that these individuals are so courageously fighting for. Nov 2, 2024 Full Review Edmund Lee South China Morning Post Billed as Hong Kong cinema’s first nuclear radiation disaster blockbuster, Cesium Fallout is a mega-budget ensemble drama that just about survives its flimsy set-up to offer an engaging hypothetical scenario of how such a crisis could be handled. Rated: 3.5/5 Oct 31, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

valleyman Cesium Fallout is a well made movie. It is fictional, but every detail is plausible. Emotions are high throughout with very convincing delivery. It is also a timely movie to remind us of the environmental threats humans create for ourselves.
