Lower is better
Review
The movie shows non-white supporting characters as good and honorable while white strangers turn evil and selfish. Multiple user reviews flag this racial stereotype pattern in the chaos scenes. The core family survival story stays focused on human nature during the comet disaster with no activist dialogue or identity arcs. Writer Chris Sparling called it a climate change allegory but the director pushed back and kept it as straight human drama.
