AMERICA IS SINKING (2023)

America’s sinking? Time to drink my own piss!

Bad news, continental United States: A giant iceberg is droppin' it like it’s hot and causing a series of tsunamis and earthquakes that are going to sink North America...only, for some apparent reason.

I love disaster movies like THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW and GEOSTORM, so obviously I'm going to give something called AMERICA IS SINKING a chance. I mean, Christ, the whole fucking thing is going to be underwater! Unfortunately, AIS turned out to be a completely soulless cookie cutter mess. And I'm not saying that because it's a low-budget film. I love low budget actioners (Hell, DEADLY PREY is one of the greatest 1980’s movies of all time!), but AMERICA IS SINKING lacks any personality at all. One of the worst sins a movie can commit is being soulless. Take WHO KILLED CAPTAIN ALEX? for example, that movie probably cost less than a few thousand dollars to produce but yet it’s hilarious and super fun to watch. AMERICA IS SINKING on the other hand feels like it was churned out in a moviemaking factory / dungeon just to make a quick buck.

Honestly, the lack of entertainment gave me a headache, I need to go lay down. Maybe drink some water. Build up my urine reserves.

Skip it.
