Successfully Cheating Death Scene After Scene?


I honestly didn't think anything could top Tom Cruise running from those Pod machines during the initial alien invasion from "War of the Worlds", but then John Cusack showed off his bad ass driving skills in a Limo seven years later.

Now we have the Rock, who's apparently just as skilled as Cusack was; but this time piloting a helicopter.

While I actually enjoyed the film for what it was, it would have been nice to dial it down a notch or two.

I can't think of a another cast of character's in the history of cinema that were so lucky to be alive, can you?

The Impossible. All 5 members of the family survived and found each other. And that was a true story.

I don't think it would have been near as fun dialed down a notch or two. It's (figuratively) like one scene after another of bomb clocks ticking down to one second left combined with Universal Studios' Disaster (formerly Earthquake) ride/Disney Hollywood Studios' Catastrophe Canyon.

Killer flick. I gave it a 10.
