"A forceful and textured depiction the protagonist’s existence. The details of his day to day and survival tactics were exactingly photographed. The film imprints on you and makes you want something for another person. Labaki’s film does what a hard hitting social realist film can do — commits one to witness a life outside one’s own, what it takes to live it, and how precious help is. How she filmed in such hard places and got the performances left me in awe."

An Upside-Down World
Poseidon- is a intense thriller.

The plot: After a huge tidal wave capsizes a luxury liner in the North Atlantic, individual survivors (Josh Lucas, Kurt Russell, Jacinda Barrett) band together and traverse a hazardous upside-down maze that they hope will take them to safety. As the wrecked vessel fills with water, the survivors must call on hidden strengths and skills to face the fight of their lives.

It has a good cast and a intense survival thriller.
