A true-life story about a Spanish family, a couple and 3 children’s, whose went to Thailand to a family trip in holidays to spend some quality family time by celebrating Christmas all together. While they were doing their activities and relaxing, drastic changes in the climate began to emerge, and a tsunami gets to raze in their way, thus separating family members and destroying what is in their environment. The mother and the older child (Luke) go through various adversities, while fighting with the strong waves and seriously damages the body of their mother. Will they survive the tsunami disaster and go home together?

This movie alone is incredibly striking in terms of special effects and editing. A script inapplicable to what really happened in Thailand and excessive music at the end looking for the tears of the viewer. It is also true that there are certain scenes that will make the most scrupulous look away, but you cannot come out of a tsunami immaculate. Pain, suffering and survival instinct, all mixed and not shaken with a few drops of love for the family unit, adorned with a pinch of special effects is what they offer us in The Impossible, a five-piece puzzle that by the force of nature is undone and throughout the film it is recomposed perhaps due to some situations that are a bit forced.

We fully recommend watching this movie, it has everything to be an attractive movie, it's nothing monotone, is clever and exiting. Adding the significant value because the reflection of family history to survive a natural phenomenon as big and scary as a tsunami, what would you do in a similar situation trying to keep your family alive?
