Having some real-life examples, this could have been an intriguing story of a tsunami. Instead we need manufactiured drama on top of manufactured drama for no other reason than to irritate the viewer.
The main protagonist family PURPOSELY separated from each other about 8 times. The first time okay, second maybe, but the remaining times made zero sense outside of creating false tension. I really wanted that whole family dead, including the child because of their stupidity.
Other stupidity, let's sit here on a beach AFTER the tsunami has started. Let's leave the safety of my family to run in danger to save someone that said 'hi' to me yesterday. Let's continue our vacation AFTER a plane crash caused by a volcano.
Scientists, doctors, engineers, politicians, tourist were the dumbest people ever. I wanted all of them dea.

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.

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.

Without trying to spoil the absolutely atrocious plot, there are amazing visuals in this series. The visual department might even win a price for their stunning work. They must have cried when they saw the entire show.
Fortunately it starts off extremely good, the first 70 minutes are absolutely engaging and with the looming catastrophe explained, there is no way anyone will stop watching. After 70 minutes they start to introduce the side plots and you will not believe what you are about to experience.
Here is my best guess, this was pitched as a 120 minutes movie but Netflix needed a limited series on a small budget and they forced the writers to extend the original plot by 90 minutes and they had only 17 minutes time before the shooting starts.
It is truly on the Level of "The Room" with slightly better acting. Decisions are made that triggered me to yell at my TV Screen because they completely disabled logic at some point and physics as well.
It turned into an unintentional comedy and that's just sad when you see the stunning visuals that accompany these idiotic characters on their way.
10 Points for the great CGI -6 Points for the writing.

I liked so much of this. The scenery and cinematography were brilliant, as were the standard of animations, which felt very real. The intensity was non-stop as at some stage it just flicks on a switch and then never let's you go. I binged it all as I couldn't stop watching.
The thing that is really bizarre to me were the small plot holes, and silly teen romance which feels a bit childish, and slightly discredits what is an otherwise solid piece of television. I don't know why they did that as at some parts I found myself practically tutting at the screen. There are a few other nonsense moments, but if you can overlook that 10%, it is still brilliant.
Genuinely, a really enjoyable watch, and I would recommend it to anyone. I actually felt a bit guilty only giving this a 7/10 because if it wasn't for those small icks it could probably be an 8 or more. Merry Christmas!
