Steve D It's a little too soon to be remaking Crawl with a lower budget and worse actors. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Costumes and makeup for the indigenous culture totally wrong and westernised. Perhaps the movie is made for an international audience. The atrocities committed were aptly shown but the indigenous culture spoke more like university students which made the movie unbelievable and disappointing. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member The Flood (2020) is a fictional tale meant to "represent" the plight of the 70 million refugees. The story of one is told in the framing device of an asylum interview. The movie makes Three major missteps. First, it fails to give the audience any real sense of what is going on in the process therefore denying the audience of what the stakes are. Second, it spends entirely too much time on the bureaucrat doing the interview personal life , none of which has anything much to do with the primary plot (The time wasted on this b-plot could have been used to fix the first problem). Third, for a fictional story there is not much there in the movie to keep the viewers interest, the central "mystery" will be guessed by most viewers in the first few minutes. It also assumes a level of knowledge of "slang" for the European refuge issue (that could have at least had a screenote). The performances (esp by Ivanno Jeremiah) keep it watchable. It is a 2 out of 5 stars movie unless the plight of fictional refugees is something you are really into (then it is 2 1/2 stars). On Hulu.
