Fukushima 50

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.

11032011, a date ill always remember, not because i was there, no, its 2 days before my birthday. but i remember the images flowing the screens, but for us norwegians, the fukushima incident was barely mentioned.the main issue was the tsunami, that killed and wrecked so much.

this is not a documentary, its a drama about the heroes, doing heroic things in a heroic way to save japan from the radiation. it shows also the ignorance from to politicians who orders in east and west over things they have no knowledge about. its made for the layman tv-viewer, withthe lines of command, and the bending and bowing and kamikaze like behaviour for the love of my country, etches alltrough the plot.

but i saw it and i do not regret. but if you want the more abstract version, then seek information in the documentary world.the grumpy old man says 5.

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.

( 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.

A movie to see if we want to know more about the disaster of fukushima but the acting is a disaster except for Ken Watanabe.

You should know that this film which is based on a book is very criticized by the Japanese because the reality was much more consensual than the film claims to show the viewer.
