Submersion

When I see all these "reviewers" with their weird "names/handles" trashing this movie (and others), I gotta wonder if AI has already taken over, lol.

Seriously, I've been wanting to say that for ages, even if it means a bunch of downvotes. Anyway, I had no idea about this movie and just thought it'd be a typical disaster flick. But then it got all twisty and totally caught me off guard.

From that point on, I was hooked and got way more than I expected. And I mean that in the best possible way!

I get that some people might not dig the direction it takes and could be "turned off" by it, but as a SciFi fan, I absolutely loved it.

The visuals were awesome, the concept was cool, and it brought up some really interesting philosophical questions. If you're open to something different from your usual disaster movie, you might really enjoy it too.

I don't want to spoil anything, so I'll stop here.

For me, it's a definite recommendation and a surprisingly good experience.

The Great Flood begins on a strong note, drawing the viewer in with an engaging and suspenseful opening. The early scenes set up an interesting premise and create real curiosity about where the story is headed. However, as the film progresses, it gradually loses focus. The narrative becomes overly long, unnecessarily complicated, and increasingly confusing. Subplots pile up without clear direction, and the pacing slows down significantly, making the experience feel dragged and cluttered. By the final act, the film struggles to maintain coherence, leaving the audience more puzzled than satisfied. Overall, The Great Flood starts well but fails to deliver a clear, well-structured payoff.

The movie seemed promising, but the kid keeps ruining everything; he's unbearable! He keeps causing one problem after another. I understand he's a child, but they made him extremely stupid and capricious. He can't even follow a simple instruction, he doesn't follow you, he can't even walk on his own!

I expected great things , and was so excited to see it. I found it abit confusing at times it disappointed me , wasn't awful but wasn't great either , real shame . Good acting skills.

Started promising.

Worth watching once at least.

And now I am just adding characters as my review is too short lol.

This was a very well done tale mostly told through visualization and with a great deal of sophistication. Those who cannot interpret what they see and must be explicitly told what they were looking at, will not enjoy this story. A good example of this is the changes made to main character's tee-shirt as she relives story iterations. You see it. You are not told about it. If you didn't see that you didn't watch the movie at all. The Marvel universe will better fulfil your needs. Likewise, those who have no idea about how AI works internally, will not understand any part of the story. A Disney production would be more along your lines of interest. Despite the fact the story is about acquiring feelings, those who interpret the world through 'feels' will be completely lost and confused. Not recommended for you folks at all.

Visually, the effects were stunning as was the acting. The story is very similar in many ways to the Alicization story arc of Sword Art Online, which was rated by most viewers far higher than this story. The reason for this is most likely due to the sophistication and open mindedness of its viewing audience. If you like SAO then you'll like and understand and enjoy this story without issue. Kudos to the actors. All of them were amazing. This was finely woven story telling with elements of science fiction. If you like to think, then this movie is for you.
