THE REEL DEAL: by Ben Show 
SAN ANDREAS REVIEW 
Disaster movies are a dime-a-dozen. They are generally seen as 
predicable, poorly-written, and sloppily acted messes of movies. 
Does ‘San Andreas’ have any hope of changing this perception? Can 
Dwayne Johnson save the genre or does this earthquake-disaster 
film have too many faults?
Ray (Dwayne Johnson) is trying to survive not only his job as 
a helicopter rescuer, but his family’s recent end. His wife, Emma 
(Carla Gugino) has moved on with her new, architect boyfriend, 
and his daughter, Blake (Alexandra Daddario) is going off to 
college; however, recent events spurring from the San Andreas fault 
line have begun to change not only their lives, but the entirety of 
California. 
‘San Andreas’ is an evolved disaster film. Both its plot and 
characters are complex, and the dialogue is one of the movies 
strongest aspects. The chemistry between the cast makes the movie 
very believable, more believable than most other disaster films. ‘San 
Andreas’ is a successful action-disaster movie that deserves to be 
seen and will hopefully become a classic for the genre.
