ला पाल्मा

This movie is about a natural disaster that takes place in the island of La Palma, the title of this show. It follows a family of four and their journey of survival/death through this disaster. Our protagonists contain the husband and wife, along with their two children, all of whom are fighting battles of their own. Will they be able to battle against Mother Nature and survive against all odds? I would recommend watching this limited series to find out.

I liked the overall screenplay which makes it a very gripping story to watch. The VFX effects are quite good too, but I think it could have been better. I would recommend watching this at least once.

Don't start watching this series before sleep, because your blood pressure will shoot through the roof due to incredibly dumb characters.

Each of their actions is counter-intuitive and annoying as hell. The series drags on as non-interesting love/family drama with some mental health issues.

Special effects of tsunami and volcano are good, but their on-screen time is too short to make a difference or give you enough satisfaction after such an annoying family drama.

The problem is that you will want to binge it, in anticipation of a bloody tsunami, to get some satisfaction in the end.. so if you are going to watch it, start during the day. If you start in the evening, you will get pissed and disturb your sleep.

That said, I really hope Netflix continues doing apocalyptic/disaster pieces.. as there has been a lack of them in the past few years. But don't do it as series, with stupid drama fillers to drag it on! Just make a movie.

If this was a movie, it would have been much better.

It felt like the producers were so desperate to give it a good ending that they forgot what makes a good disaster themed series great. Some characters took dumb decisions yet didn't die at the end. Few characters got saved in a way which is not even realistically possible in situation like that. So a lot of questionable decisions they took at the climax which didn't go in the favor of the drama. I enjoyed the other episodes though. Skipped a few parts. VFX was stunning. But definitely a good one time watch. Good for the producers that they didnt drag it too much and ended with 4 episodes. That kept the screenplay as griping as possible for the viewers.

Okay we have a great series here finally " IF YOU ARE OPENMINDED " you can enjoy something with your family coming to pros first - First of all as a limited series and that too not so anticipating series it has really really great VFX, I mean I was shocked that they outdid this job from many main studios , second the thrill and pace of the series it was fast and medium not slow so you gonna like it.

Not so many adult scenes kissing between 2 girls which was not necessary thou but yeah no problem I mean they in these time it's mandatory now idk why

Coming to bad or I should say dumb part - In many scenes I feel like the characters are the dumbest being on that whole island , I mean many accidents could be avoided but I think they deliberately chose that , but I think that's somewhat necessary 🤣😭 or the series could be finished in an hour.

But these bad points can be easily ignored.

Overall it's a great series if you wanna watch it with your friends and family , the camera work , VFX, the location all are great and good adventure series that is wrapped up in 4 episodes so you don't have to wait years to finish that up

In short go for it you will surely enjoy it. For me I enjoyed it a lot NETFLIX should make more family friendly thriller series like these.

Yes, this movie has flaws, but it is definitely an entertaining mini series. The dubbing was easier to handle than most. The cgi was really good for a Netflix production. The acting was ok, but you felt connected to them all the same. Now there are some ridiculous decisions made by the characters that made you wanna scream at them. Overall very entertaining and my attention span didn't wander, which is a good sign. Trying to meet the word requirement because I am running out of things to type here as 2025 approaches. Happy New Year and let's make 2025 better than 2024. Adios, good night, and bye !!
