Fukushima 50 (2020)
7/10
Invite to watch in Japanese language.
15 June 2022
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.
