It’s a Disaster (review)

Even though this movie was made in 2013, it takes on a new meaning today. A quartet of friends and their partners gather for brunch. Drama ensues from the outset, when relationships start to crackle. It all intensifies when they discover that a dirty bomb has gone off and they must seal themselves in the house to avoid horrible death. This heightened situation pulls out secrets, confessions and new conflicts, but the script manages to keep a dark comic edge. The cast includes familiar names like America Ferrera, David Cross and Julia Stiles and all of the actors create interesting characters. Even with the apocalyptic scenario, this isn’t a sci-fi thriller, but an enjoyable and suitably clever encounter with a group of friends facing their final minutes. (Streaming on Amazon and Hulu)
