The Statue of Liberty engulfed by a tidal wave and the world coming to an end..
Nothing matches ‘mother nature gone wild’ on the silver screen, making ‘bad weather’ or ‘global warming’ a hot topic in Hollywood movies. A topic so sensitive yet so thrilling, ‘bad weather’ is often portrayed larger than life with the help of futuristic special effects. Realistic visual images of killer tornadoes, catastrophic hurricanes, floods and violent volcanoes blow the audience right out of their seats. Here’s our list of some good movies on ‘bad weather’ that made the audience stay glued to the screen.
An Inconvenient Truth: An audience and critic favorite, An Inconvenient Truth makes the compelling case that global warming is real, man-made, and its effects will be cataclysmic if we don't act now. Leaves the viewer shaken, involved and inspired. Typically meant for our future generations, today’s youth, who have no choice but to confront the climate change and ‘bad weather’ crisis head-on!
Day After Tomorrow: The disaster film epic, The Day After Tomorrow, depicts a world where global warming triggers an abrupt climate change, creating a storm that unleashes unimaginable ‘bad weather’ and monstrous disasters. In the span of just a few days, tornados devastate Los Angeles, huge hail pounds Tokyo, and colossal tsunamis and blizzards whip New York. Now please don’t question whether it could it really happen or not? Grab some popcorn, enjoy the visual effects and of course don’t forget to learn some serious lessons from the movie!
Touching the Void: Well yes, inevitably, all mountain climbing survival movies involve bad weather. But Touching the Void is little different. Not only is this movie based on an unbelievable true story of human survival, the special features actually enhance the horror levels as it touches death so closely. The movie could be a difficult watch for all those weak hearts, scared of ‘bad weather’ and heights.
We also recommend, Theo James movies.
Twister: Twister is possibly the greatest movie about ‘Bad Weather’ of all time. When tornadoes hit in real-life, the human compulsion is to get as close as possible and take a picture, then pray to the gods to get away before dying. Unfortunately, most of us are too scared to actually try this. Released in 1996, Twister was the first to realistically let you live out that fantasy and survive.
11th Hour: Doesn’t just scare you with the rapid change across the world due to global warming, it also provides visionary and practical solutions for restoring the planet's ecosystems. Leonardo’s dramatic acting and amazing dialogues help in entertaining yet educating the audience.
