Inspired by true events, Wolfgang Petersen'sThe Perfect Storm tells the story of the Andrea Gail, a commercial fishing vessel with a crew of six lost at sea during “The Perfect Storm” of 1991. Though the first act drags a bit, the film does set up the individual characters and their motivations quite well, including hardened sea captain Billy (Geor...
One of the few female-directed entries in this genre from the early 2000s, Kathryn Bigelow’sK19: The Widowmaker is also the only true period piece on this list. Set in the early 1960s during the height of the Cold War, the story follows a Soviet ballistic missile nuclear submarine commanded by Captain Alexei Vostrikov (Harrison Ford with the fainte...
Roland Emmerich has made an entire career out of imagining all the different and spectacular ways in which the world might end (sticking to only two of his films for this list was a bit of a challenge). Starring Dennis Quaid and a young Jake Gyllenhaal as paleoclimatologist and son, respectively, The Day After Tomorrow goes the environmental-apocal...
A staple of the disaster film genre, alien invasions can trace their origin to H.G. Wells' 19th-century novel The War of the Worlds. Though the original work served as an allegory for the British Empire’s pre-WWI preoccupation with national defense, director Steven Spielberg avoided directly choosing a topic for exploration in his more modern adapt...
Often described as Blair Witchmeets Godzilla, the small cast and tight, shaky shots of Cloverfield conjure up a firsthand experience of the devastation and horror of being stuck in Manhattan while a skyscraper-sized monster destroys the city. The cinema-verite style of the film caters well to Lost writer Drew Goddard and producer J.J. Abrams’ obses...
Another Roland Emmerich entry, 2012 is a seriously underrated gem of a classic disaster film. Featuring a wonderfully diverse and eclectic crew of characters - John Cusack as a writer on vacation with his kids, Amanda Peet as his estranged ex-wife, Chiwetel Ejiofor as the chief scientist, Danny Glover as president, Thandie Newton as first daughter,...
Maybe not the most pleasurably escapist of all the entries on this list, Steven Soderbergh’s prescient Contagion does an admirably precise job of depicting the fall-out from a global pandemic, while still crafting a well-paced and entertaining film. The story covers many concepts now all-too-familiar to most of us - contact-tracing, quarantine, pan...
The Norwegian film The Wave does an incredibly effective job of the buildup to the disaster, opening with pulled-from the headlines clips about deadly landslide-triggered tsunamis dating back decades. The film lingers in the suspense of the increasingly undeniable nature of the warning signs (initially just slightly askew measurements, ultimately a...
WhileAdam McKay’s recent Don’t Look Up may take on this genre in a more obvious, traditional way, The Big Short is still arguably his best entry in the category (and likely to remain so). For many people, the 2008 financial crisis was a disaster of existential proportions, and the film captures the build-up, denial, and subsequent chaos surrounding...
Though Rampage is perhaps the best of Dwayne Johnson’s numerous fending-off-massive-destruction vehicles,Brad Peyton’s San Andreas is the most classically “disaster movie” in a way that rarely gets made anymore. The film follows a rescue helicopter pilot (Johnson) as he makes the perilous journey across California with his ex-wife (Carla Gugino) to...
