Whether it’s Dennis Quaid fighting against an impending ice age or an alien Keanu Reeves angry at the destruction humans cause, environmental catastrophes have been an effective go-to trope in Tinsel Town for a while now. Sometimes, it's addressed successfully and entertainingly. The release of Adam McKay's Netflix hit Don't Look Up is dividing critics, showing that the subject can certainly be adressed. That’s why it’s so refreshing when filmmakers actually get the climate crisis right, with impressive results.
