No one really cares about the script when you have a giant volcano exploding or an earthquake reducing a city to ashes. I’m not entirely sure which movies they’re comparing this particular feature too but disaster movies over the last 5 years have been truly lacking in the script department.

American disaster movies such as San Andreas, for example, have moments where the CGI is so embarrassingly obvious. The images just pop off the screen and the set pieces blended with the action sequences are right up there with such movies as Deepwater Horizon. The budget was roughly $9m but it looks and feels like a movie five times bigger than the budget would suggest. What The Crew lacks in depth of story it more than makes up for with cinematic brilliance. It seems as thou Russians are a fan of spectacle rather than substance.
