Dwayne Johnson's 2015 Disaster Film 'San Andreas' Gains Netflix Popularity Amid Sequel Uncertainty

News summary

"San Andreas," the 2015 disaster film starring Dwayne Johnson as a rescue pilot navigating catastrophic earthquakes on the U.S. West Coast, remains a popular and commercially successful movie, recently gaining renewed attention on Netflix. Grossing nearly $475 million worldwide, the film combines intense action sequences and impressive visual effects that earned multiple award nominations, though critics gave it mixed reviews with a Rotten Tomatoes score of 48%. Johnson's portrayal of Ray Gaines, a family man confronting disaster, anchors the film emotionally, supported by Carla Gugino's strong performance. Despite its clichéd disaster movie elements, "San Andreas" captivates audiences with thrilling CGI destruction of iconic California landmarks and a story of survival and family reunion. Discussions about a sequel, "San Andreas 2," have surfaced intermittently since 2016, with involvement from original cast and crew hinted at, but the project has yet to materialize amid uncertain developments. Netflix's streaming availability has introduced the film to new viewers, boosting its popularity and confirming its status as an entertaining, if imperfect, disaster blockbuster.
