In this episode Mark talks about the 2020 American disaster film "Greenland" directed by Richard Roman Waugh. The film was produced by and stars Gerard Butler as John Garrity, a structural engineer living in Atlanta, Georgia, who along with his estranged wife Allison (played by Morena Baccarin) and their diabetic son, Nathan, as well as the entire population of the world, find themselves in an arduous and often heart-wrenching fight for survival as fragments from an imposing planet-detroying comet capable of causing a mass extinction of life on Earth race towards Earth. The film also stars Scott Glenn as Dale (Allison's Father), David Denman as Ralph Vento, Hope Davis as Judy Vento, as well as other cast members who give memorable and often powerful performances. The film not only has impressive special effects but it also has an engaging and an exhilarating premise, as well as a pace that races by and gives a sense of urgency to the viewer, as the stakes and the growing tension and the ever-present danger rises with every impact that is felt.
