Fukushima 50

As Japanese, we have to keep thinking why our nation was helped out of ultimate destruction at that time. Major element might have been simply a chance, considering the fact that we could hardly understand what was going on.

However, it is also true that nuclear engineers struggled for their lives in order to save Japan. Common people behaved calmly amid such a hopeless situation. It was not because somebody ordered them to do so but they originally had the sense of mission. Their noble sense was well expressed in this work.

Memory of Fukushima disaster must not be forgotten. I hope this movie can contribute to this purpose.

Being Engineer, I think Power Generators should be located at height & backwards ( not sea facing ). May save the Blast which happened at Nuclear Site in Fukushima in 2011 duebto Tsunami.

A sobering view of the disaster, and a reminder of what happened to the people there and what they did. Well-produced throughout, and with good acting from all. There is a little family drama but it is not overdone and fits the situation. It's very interesting to see the Japanese culture and approach to the events.

( there been people making multiple accounts rating bombing negative review on this site... no reason to care anymore rate like or neg reviews people do this to make a statement their own person basis(s)) to them its a game.

................. When this happened, it was unreal. Nothing in my years have experienced could help me better understand this. The earth quack was first. But after the meltdown everyone in Tokyo was told the radiation clouds winds hit us. There was no escape. But as the winds changed it was then safe. This movie is low budget, but does that matter? No, what is the people that gave their self's to help stop this. Its just not the 50 but the 10,000s that hurt by the fallout. What sad is this current virus prevented this movie to get this respect it should get. Its a must see. Thank you.
