This is an extremely serious film. How do you evacuate an entire nation? Where do you put them? What about your culture? There are meetings with high level politicians, scientists and disaster relief workers. It's all treated very solemnly. But it's also time for a lot of special effects, cities get pulverised, earthquakes shake things up and all with out the assistance of Godzilla this time.
Films like this are unsurprisingly lacking in characterization and The Sinking of Japan is no exception however no other studio can destroy the world like the pros at Toho.
135 minutes, written by Masato Kato.
