FIRST TIME WATCHING: THE IMPOSSIBLE (2012) reaction/commentary!

Wow! Want to see us cry? Then come watch us watch THE IMPOSSIBLE.
This movie is so emotional and harrowing. The cast (including a young Tom Holland) knocks it out of the park, and the special effects and sets are mind blowing! Join us!
NOTE: the edit is VERY choppy due to 10 CopyRight strikes that forced us to keep cutting out segments. APOLOGIES!

Hundreds of thousands died. The fact the whole family survived is The Impossible. This is a movie of faith & perseverance in the most dire of situations. The fact that people don't like the movie and claim it is depressing are missing the intent and purpose of the movie. In the end this movie highlights the strength of humans in times of distress. Never give up!

[@Koquitaful]

Some interesting facts: - The real family is Spanish, although they lived in Japan for work. - In the scene where the local women dress Nomi, the real Maria was on set and it was one of the most emotional moments for both of them. - The people who are with the father when they lend him his cell phone are real survivors of the tsunami - The director Bayona (Spanish) read the book Society Of The Snow to the actors to motivate them, from there he got the title of The Impossible. Because just like in this movie, the story of the Uruguayans in the tragedy or miracle of the Andes transformed the impossible into possible.

My tears begin to flow when Lucas is clinging to the tree, screaming in terror for his mom. From that point on the tears rarely stop. Only the intensity of the flow varies.

[@torontomame]

From what I understand, what they were vomiting in the hospital was the water, seaweed, etc, that was forced into their stomachs by the violent water. Also, apparently the real Lucas reunited I think 72 people with their loved ones in that hospital, and he grew up to become a doctor.

Coming here to comment the exact same thing.

But also into their lungs.

SOCIETY OF THE SNOW... nothing more to say

[@Cyn-kath]

I've been totally crying with you guys the whole movie I liked your reaction, the truth is that this is a heartbreaking movie but also a beautiful one, so many feelings when you see all what they have to get through and moment when everybody was in the hospital was... wow, I cried like a baby

[@javix2013]

Society of The Snow for the next one, is the last movie of this same director of The Impossible, and it is being very successful these days. Based on the famous air tragedy in the Andes mountains.

[@juanjosegarciamorales9689]

🎉 It is a Spanish film based on a true story. The director listened on the radio to Maria tell her story. The family told him his story and advised him to make this beautiful but painful movie.

[@Spiri7ualShi7]

You will trip with Society of the Snow, since it's a real story.

[@debbie541]

this is a real family that did survive : The Boxing Day tsunami in 2004 is believed to be the deadliest tsunami in history, killing more than 230,000 people across 14 countries. It began at 7:59 am local time on December 26, 2004, when a 9.1-magnitude quake struck off the northern tip of Sumatra in Indonesia.

[@aliciaestrada8827]

J.A Bayona (Director) is the master of realism, this is an excellent film. But his best film is SOCIETY OF THE SNOW, it is not so Hollywood style, it does not have super stars and it is in Spanish, its original language. It is darker, very raw, but it reveals the best of human beings in impossible situations. You should watch it very carefully, the second time I saw it, I understood many things and details that I had overlooked.

[@user-qx6ri2bf4o]

You have to watch SOCIETY OF THE SNOW ❤

[@TaylorsAngel18]

The real Maria said that while being under the water she couldn't tell which way was up or down. She said she hoped her children died immediately because she didn't want them to have to deal with what she was going through. Then she saw Lucas in the distance screaming for her and it brought her back to life. She actually had more injuries than what they could show in the film and she needed 16 surgeries afterwards. She has gone on to say that she survived on luck because she should be dead. The fact she, her husband, and her three children survived and found each other was The Impossible.

[@KrlKngMrtssn]

Society of the snow!!!!! Netflix, 2024 movie. Sublime and nominated for best international feature film at the Oscar's. Got to react to please

[@michaelatteberry6462]

I swear this was not acting, it was real and I was there. Even the little kids. You two were fantastic

[@screamqueenshorrorpodcast]

Such a heartbreaking and moving film. Thanks for watching and for the kind words ❤

[@morgyn1002]

This movie gets me every time. Crying from start to finish😭

[@franknovella2345]

That candle in the background is hilarious

[@JT-kr2ds]

Depressing but cathartic. Love y’all’s reaction.

[@screamqueenshorrorpodcast]

Thank you! Yes it was a good release 😢

[@edisonlima4647]

The wave coming the opposite direction is not the water receding, per se, it has crashed upon the mountain and started a loooong process of back and forth waves. That's one thing to be specially warry about in bays, where the returning water will crash at the rocks and return, destroying whatever is left from the first impact.

[@screamqueenshorrorpodcast]

Thank you for clarifying this! ❤

[@luciaarnaotorrego6852]

Loved your reaction as always💗 You should check out society of the snow, i would love to hear what you have to say about that one and it's by the dame director and also based on a true story

[@screamqueenshorrorpodcast]

Thank you! Yes we are going to watch it very soon!! ❤❤

[@luciaarnaotorrego6852]

@@screamqueenshorrorpodcast looking forward to that. Thank you for taking into account my suggestion

[@lindataggart9076]

My landlord left the day before..she brought me a bamboo umbrella that she bought in the gift shop of her hotel that was destroyed ..

[@screamqueenshorrorpodcast]

Oh wow! She was very lucky. Thanks for sharing that story ❤

[@chezzachezza7325]

I was in Thailand a few months before the tsunami i was horrified our hotel was gone , went back in 2017 beautiful

[@moonwalker9266]

People think that a tsunami is one giant wave and that's it. But that's not the case especially after a Mega Quake like that in Indonesia (9,1-9,3) and in Japan (9,0-9,1 ). It's wave after wave after wave crashing receding and again. That mega quake It had the longest fault rupture ever observed, between 1,200 km to 1,300 km and had the longest duration of faulting ever observed, at least ten minutes. It caused the planet to vibrate as much as 10 mm (0.4 in), and also remotely triggered earthquakes as far away as Alaska. It truly was a monster quake. 227.898 people died (that we know of because that number might be higher than that) so their survival as a family the odds were astronomical. An amazing story and even more amazing movie.

[@eslunita]

React to Society of the Snow! Same director, amazing cinematography!

[@ddiamondr1]

The grandma who talked about the stars was Geraldine Chaplin. Charlie Chaplin’s daughter. I had the pleasure of meeting her on a film set back in the 70s. Lovely person.

[@romoreyes2557]

Please, do society of the snow next, same director, also a completely real and accurate story (please watch in spanish, original language)

[@glyngasson8450]

The mother from the original family said that the ball the boys were playing with was yellow and that was the biggest error in the film, so it is very close to reality. The mum also insisted that Naomi Watts played her

[@heartsmyfaceforever8140]

Tsunamis come in huge lengthed waves. They just keep pushing forward. Then they record and then they rebound if there’s a land mass nearby.

[@heartsmyfaceforever8140]

The vomit scene is them expelling g the debris that was forced into their stomachs with the pressure of the waves.

[@debbie541]

they were all in it, if within the wave distance..... In Indonesia's Aceh province Sumatra, waves reached 167 feet (51 meters) and inland up to three miles (five kilometers) inland. in Somalia, waves ranged in height from 11 to 31 feet (3.4 to 9.4 meters).

[@newnumber2721]

Amazing film! So emotional

[@lindataggart9076]

it takes a minute for the response because this was widespread..destroyed many things and people instantly..

[@ChiChisWorld]

I needed an IV bag after watching this movie. I think I lost 90% of the water in my system.

[@Koquitaful]

SOCIETY OF THE SNOW 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@kari904]

I'm not crying

[@alenkad8954]

Society of the Snow, please

[@viejomundodelcaballo]

SOCIETY OF THE SNOW..

[@thatnorwegianguy1986]

A family from my town that survived the tsunami said the local Thai people who themselves had lost people and their homes went above and beyond helping others. It's a shame that is not reflected in the movie as much because the Thai people deserve to be recognized for what they did for complete strangers inviting them into their homes, identifying and locating victims as well as helping people finding their families.

[@laramiaizz]

how is it a shame? this story is from the eyes of 5 people & 3 of them were kids. not to mention, one of the 2 adults was so badly injured.

[@steffih.6478]

Take a look at the making of...ALL water szenes are real...!

[@elfuos]

react to society of the snow please

[@daustin8888]

Seeing this happen to a bunch of privlieged people makes this less tragic for me. Would have loved to have seen it from an Indonesians point of view
