You see, the earth has never been so clear

1. "Mexican agreed to open its borders only after we canceled Latin America's arrears" "We are grateful to the people of the third world for taking in" I deeply doubt that the Americans who made this film are trying to alleviate their guilt by obscenity.
2. "We used to think that we could abuse big natural resources, but we didn't expect nature to counterattack so powerfully. We were wrong." This sentence is a failure. Although it is sarcasm, it is too obvious to satirize himself, and there is suspicion of selling conscience.
3. The heroine has always been so beautiful after suffering a great disaster, it is too unreal.
4. Don't they feel bad breath when they kiss, they don't have anything to wash their mouths.
5.. (Serious) Disasters are enough, and there is hope in despair. The metaphor of the Statue of Liberty is great. There is a powerful dark line of warmth hidden under the main line of disaster. The rhythm of describing this dark line is well controlled and not slow. Not slow, leaving enough time for the audience to ponder and think, and finally hug and end, I couldn't hold back the tears. There is no large-scale roar in the film, and the decency of panic comes from the clear use of the camera lens, and the natural transition of the disaster between wind, water and snow is rising.
You see, the earth has never been so clear. After human beings have gone through this disaster, everything in the world will feel that it has never been so clear. A catastrophe is also a baptism, washing away the books in the library and washing away all of our Self-righteous, everything starts over and we are spotless.

    Probably the best disaster movie I have watched, and it is quite real. Male: "Nietzsche? We can't burn Nietzsche's books. He is the most important thinker in the nineteenth century." Female: "Oh, please, Nietzsche is a girl-loving and macho pig."
