ザ・フラッド
あらすじ
嵐の天候が荒れ狂う中、強力なハリケーンがルイジアナに上陸し、すべてを飲み込む脅威となる壊滅的な洪水をもたらします。荒くれ者の囚人と厳しい顔つきの警備員を乗せた刑務所バスが、水かさが増す中で制御不能になり、混乱のさなかに巻き込まれます。 囚人の中には、屈強な犯罪者や、バスに乗っている動機や秘密を抱えた一見無実に見える人もいます。脱獄を狙うタフなギャングのリーダー、ジェイク。身に覚えのない罪で不当に告発された若い女性、ジーナ。そして、謎めいた過去を持つ、静かで陰気な一匹狼のマーカスです。 洪水が押し寄せる中、囚人たちは脱出経路のないバスに閉じ込められていることに気づきます。その時、彼らは水面下に潜む恐ろしいものに気づきます。それは、長年の濁った水の中で生きるうちに体が歪み、周囲の混乱によって狂気に駆られた巨大なアリゲーターです。 アリゲーターは深みから現れ始め、噛みつく顎と鱗だらけの皮膚は、下に潜む危険を常に思い出させます。囚人と警備員が自然災害と怪物のような捕食者から生き残ろうと奮闘する中で、同盟が結ばれ、壊され、生き残るために手段を選ばない者もいます。 洪水がさらに増す中、生存のための戦いは必死の戦いとなり、明確な勝利者は見えません。この黙示録的な悪夢を無傷で乗り越えることができる者はいるのでしょうか。それとも、容赦ないアリゲーターと災害の猛攻撃は、最もタフな生存者にとっても手に負えないものになるのでしょうか。
レビュー
Norah
The daily lives of Louis XVI and his family as they are imprisoned awaiting sentencing. Nothing much to it.

#Singapore French Film Festival# The film poignantly and grandly depicts the king's transformation from a god to a mere mortal, culminating in his execution. The exceptional performances of the male and female leads further enhance the film, leaving a lasting emotional impact.
Morgan
Screened at the Singapore French Film Festival. Visually stunning, but the pacing is sluggish, and the ending feels rushed and abrupt.

"After me, the flood." This famous quote attributed to Louis XV actually owes its impactful translation to the Chinese. The original French, "Après moi, le déluge," literally translates to "After me, the deluge will come." The "flood," in this context, is a reference to the biblical Great Flood, symbolizing divine punishment and foreshadowing the Day of Judgment, rather than a literal inundation.
Maeve
Disliked it; it was a real snooze. The costumes, props, and set design were exquisite, and the cinematography was also very good. Some parts felt like a stage play, with the sets and the performances resembling one.

Intense and suspenseful, "The Flood" masterfully combines natural disaster and monstrous creature elements to create a thrilling ride. The hurricane-devastated Louisiana setting provides a chilling backdrop for the carnage that unfolds. The film's strong pacing and convincing performances elevate the tension, making the showdown between humans and giant alligators both believable and terrifying. With its clever blend of horror and action, "The Flood" will keep viewers on the edge of their seats until the very end.

In "The Flood", a disastrous hurricane unleashes an army of ravenous alligators, placing a group of prisoners and guards in a desperate fight for survival. With chaos raining down everywhere, this intense thriller puts the viewer in the midst of terrifying encounters, where the destructive waters become an endless arena for horror.
