San Andreas is a 2015 American disaster film directed by Brad Peyton. The screenplay was written by Carlton Cuse, with Andre Fabrizio and Jeremy Passmore receiving a story credit. The film stars Dwayne Johnson, Carla Gugino, Alexandra Daddario, Ioan Gruffudd, Archie Panjabi, and Paul Giamatti.

Principal photography of the film started on April 22, 2014 in Queensland, Australia and wrapped up on July 27 in San Francisco. The film was released worldwide in 2D and 3D on May 29, 2015, received mixed reviews from critics, and grossed $473 million worldwide.

Plot

Raymond "Ray" Gaines (Dwayne Johnson) is a Los Angeles Fire Department Air Rescue pilot in the midst of a divorce from Emma (Carla Gugino) and planning a trip to San Francisco with his daughter Blake (Alexandra Daddario).

Meanwhile, Caltech seismologist Lawrence Hayes (Paul Giamatti) and his colleague Dr. Kim Park (Will Yun Lee) are at Hoover Dam doing research for a new earthquake predicting model when a nearby and heretofore unknown fault ruptures. This triggers a 7.1 magnitude earthquake that collapses the dam and kills Park after he rescues a little girl and throws her to Hayes as he falls to the collapsing ground.

When Ray is called into work because of this, Blake goes with her mother's new boyfriend Daniel Riddick (Ioan Gruffudd) to San Francisco, instead of Ray.

Hayes discovers that the San Andreas Fault is shifting and will soon cause a major earthquake, thereby destroying cities along the fault line. Emma is having lunch at a hotel in Downtown LA with Daniel's sister Susan (Kylie Minogue) when the fault shifts triggering a 9.1 magnitude earthquake, with Susan among the casualties during the event. Rather than reporting for emergency rescue duty, Ray saves Emma from the collapsing building, and they escape the city aboard his helicopter, barely managing to swerve around the US Bank Tower as it comes crumbling down.

In San Francisco, Daniel brings Blake to his office where she meets Ben (Hugo Johnstone-Burt), an engineering student from England seeking employment and his brother, Ollie (Art Parkinson). Daniel and Blake leave the premises, but become trapped in their car in the parking garage after a string of earthquakes. Daniel flees but Blake is found by Ben and Ollie, who help her escape. They then find a working phone and Blake calls Ray and Emma, who fly to San Francisco to save her.

En route, Ray's helicopter fails, forcing him to make an emergency landing at a shopping mall in Bakersfield. Amid the chaos of looting, he steals a truck and he and Emma escape. They come across an older couple broken down on the side of the road where the San Andreas Fault has opened up, blocking the road and the couple, who happen to own an airplane, agree to give it up in exchange for Ray's vehicle.

In San Francisco, Blake, Ben and Ollie are trying to find a place to signal Ray, as the point they agreed to meet at, Coit Tower, is engulfed in flames. On approach, Ray and Emma are forced to parachute in the city when a 9.6 magnitude quake hits the city, becoming the largest earthquake in history. Much of the city is left in ruins and Blake, Ben and Ollie narrowly survive. Ray and Emma, realizing they cannot make their way through the destroyed city, are able to commandeer a boat only to see that the water in the bay is beginning to recede, indicating that a megatsunami is approaching.

As it approaches, Blake, Ben, and Ollie run into a building under construction which Daniel helped design. Ray and Emma almost make it over the tsunami when a giant cargo ship is caught in the wave. They dodge the propellers and manage to make it over. Dozens of other people in boats manage to make it over the wave before it crests also, but the giant tsunami hits the Golden Gate Bridge with the enormous cargo ship, which snaps the bridge span cleanly in two; Daniel is among those killed when a shipping container crushes him. The wave then proceeds into the ruined city, swamping cruise ships and flooding the building Blake is in. Emma and Ray make their way through the flooded downtown area and are finally able to locate Blake, Ben, and Ollie as the building begins to sink beneath the water. Ray dives into the building to save Blake as she becomes unconscious while trapped underwater, while Emma breaks into the building with the boat and rescues everyone just as the building collapses; however Blake apparently drowned. Ray, however, manages to resuscitate her, and the family is happily reunited.

They head to a relief camp where the reconciled Ray and Emma talk about their future; on the remains of the Golden Gate Bridge, an American flag unfolds, giving hope that the city will recover and rebuild as rescue vehicles descend on the radically altered landscape of the San Francisco Bay Area. Then the camera zooms out to see the whole San Francisco bay area, showing that the bay now extends south from San Jose to Santa Cruz, turning the area from San Francisco to Santa Cruz into an island.

Filming

Second unit filming on Queensland, Australia on June 22, 2014

On December 17, 2013 Variety reported that the film would be shot at Village Roadshow Studios in Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia.[19] The production was set to start in April 2014 in Queensland, with locations including Ipswich and Brisbane.[5][20] On March 20, 2014, it was announced that Gods of Egypt had started production in Australia, and San Andreas was set to begin soon after.[21] On April 16, 2014, Johnson tweeted photos from the training for the film.[22][23]

Filming began on April 22, 2014 in Australia and was also shot in Los Angeles, Bakersfield, and San Francisco.[24][25] On May 12, shooting took place in the Lockyer Valley.[26] On May 10–11, shooting was taking place in Los Angeles and then production went back to Australia to complete the rest of shooting.[27] On May 17, second unit was filming scenes in Bakersfield where a helicopter was spotted, while Johnson was busy in Gold Coast.[28] On June 22, the crew was spotted filming disaster scenes on Elizabeth Street in Brisbane.[29]

Filming outside AT&T Park

The film's second-unit started shooting on July 8, in San Francisco, while the first unit began shooting on July 21, wrapping up on July 27.[30] On July 15–16, first unit was filming in Fisherman's Wharf, while a second unit was also filming in Embarcadero on July 16.[31] On July 21, the filming was taking place at AT&T Park, where the crew shot a scene during a San Francisco Giants game.[32] On July 22, they filmed an earthquake with fake victims and fake garbage at Hyde and Lombard streets in Russian Hill.[33] On July 23, crews were filming disaster scenes in The Armory.[34] On July 26, they filmed some scenes near the Fairmont Hotel, with the last day of filming spent shooting on the California Street in Financial District,[35] wrapping up filming on July 27, 2014.

Music

On July 24, 2014, it was announced that Andrew Lockington would be composing the music for the film.[36]

Three teasers were revealed and two of them include Robot Koch & Delhia de France and Sia singing "California Dreamin'" by The Mamas and the Papas.[citation needed]

Release

On December 5, 2013, Warner Bros. set the film for a June 5, 2015, release, in 2D and 3D.[37] On October 21, Warner Bros. moved the film's release date to May 29, 2015.[38] It was the company's first film to be released in Dolby Cinema.[39]

Home media

San Andreas was released on Digital HD and Blu-ray/DVD on October 13, 2015. Upon its first week of release on home media in the U.S., the film topped the Nielsen VideoScan First Alert chart, which tracks overall disc sales, and debuted at number 2 at the Blu-ray Disc sales chart with 40% of unit sales coming from Blu-ray, a surprisingly low ratio given the film's over-the-top special effects. It was blocked by the Diamond Edition Blu-ray Disc edition of the 1992 animated classic Aladdin.[40]

Marketing

An image from the film featuring Johnson was released on March 17, 2014.[41] The film's first trailer was released on December 9, 2014.[42] Warner Bros. spent a total of $39.4 million on TV advertisement for the film.[43]

Reception

Box office

San Andreas grossed $155.2 million in North America and $318.5 million in other territories for a worldwide total of $473.6 million.[4] It became the highest-grossing Warner Bros. film of 2015,[44] and the fourteenth highest-grossing film worldwide overall.[44] Deadline.com calculated the net profit of the film to be $88.07 million, when factoring together all expenses and revenues for the film.[45]

North America

San Andreas opened in North America across 3,777 theaters including a total of 3,200 3D locations.[46] Several days prior to the film's release various box office pundits were predicting a $40 million or more opening in North America.[3][47] It made $3.1 million from Thursday night showings[48] and $18.2 million on its opening day.[49][50] It earned $54.5 million in its opening weekend which was well above the tracking and predictions.[51][52] It was Johnson's biggest opening as a lead actor, surpassing the $36 million debut of his The Scorpion King in 2002 even after adjusting for inflation.[53] Warner Bros. distribution chief Dan Fellman commented about the successful opening, saying that audiences never get tired of disaster films, even going back to The Poseidon Adventure (1972). He added, "What also gets tiring is when you start to do sequels of the same thing. It needs to be fresh, and you have to have the right chemistry in the cast", pointing out the originality of the film, and the performances of Johnson and the other cast, as some of the factors behind the film's successful opening.[52] In its second weekend, it fell gradually by 52% earning an estimated $26.4 million, falling in second place (behind Spy) as a result of major competition with newly released films.[54] However, the fall was less than that of other disaster movies.[54]

Outside North America

Outside North America, the film opened in a total of 60 countries in the same weekend, including France, the United Kingdom, Mexico and Australia.[55] It opened Wednesday, May 27 in 4 countries, added 38 countries on Thursday and 18 more countries on Friday, May 29[56] and through Sunday, May 31 earned a 5-day opening weekend total of $63.9 million from 15,420 screens in 60 countries debuting at first place in 55 of those countries as well as at the international box office.[57] In its second weekend, it added $97.7 million.[58] It topped the box office outside of North America for two consecutive weekends before being overtaken by Jurassic World in its third weekend.[58]

It had the biggest opening for a disaster movie and second-biggest for Warner Bros. in Mexico with $10.1 million from 3,100 screens.[57] In China, it had a three-day opening weekend of $35 million[59] and six-day opening total of $51.8 million from 8,795 screens,[58] although Chinese box office analysts site Entgroup reported a $55 million opening.[60] Despite health concerns over the MERS virus,[61] which resulted in the plunge of theater admissions,[62] the film opened to $7.2 million in South Korea (including Wednesday sneaks) and topped the box office.[58][63] It had similar successful openings in the UK, Ireland and Malta ($7.2 million), Russia and the CIS ($5.3 million), Brazil ($3.2 million) France ($3.1 million), Australia ($2.4 million), Hong Kong ($2.2 million) and Germany ($2 million).[57][58] It became Warner Bros.' highest-grossing film of all time in Mexico, Chile, Colombia, Peru and Venezuela, and in China it is the fourth highest.[64][65] As of June 28, 2015 in total earnings, its largest market outside of North America are China ($99.3 million) and Mexico ($29.4 million).[65]

Critical reaction

On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a rating of 50%, based on 205 reviews, with an average rating of 5.3/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "San Andreas has a great cast and outstanding special effects, but amidst all the senses-shattering destruction, the movie's characters and plot prove less than structurally sound."[66] On Metacritic, the film has a score of 43 out of 100, based on 42 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[67] CinemaScore polls conducted during the opening weekend, cinema audiences gave the film an average grade of "A–" on an A+ to F scale.[49]

IGN awarded it a score of 7.5 out of 10, saying, "There are some cracks in the foundation, but San Andreas is solid popcorn fare thanks to sharp visuals and The Rock."[68]

Writing in Variety, Andrew Barker wrote, "Of the many charges that can be levied against Brad Peyton’s San Andreas, false advertising is not one of them. The disaster pic promises nothing more than the complete CGI destruction of California as foregrounded by Dwayne Johnson’s jackfruit-sized biceps, and it delivers exactly that".[69] Andrew O'Hehir wrote in Salon, "Considered as pure spectacle, San Andreas is gripping and effective, as well as a somewhat interesting form of counter-narrative: A vision of near-term apocalypse that has nothing to do with climate change, monsters or alien invaders".[70] Entertainment Weekly's critic Chris Nashawaty wrote, "As patently preposterous, scientifically dubious, and unapologetically corny as director Brad Peyton's orgy of CGI devastation is, its popcorn prophecy of the inevitable is a blast of giddy, disposable fun".[71] Mick LaSalle wrote in The San Francisco Chronicle, "Some movies are easy to mock, but hard to resist. This is one of them".[72] Kevin C. Johnson echoed the sentiment in The St. Louis Post-Dispatch, "San Andreas is an action film that hits viewers over the head. Again and again. But isn't that exactly why you'd want to go see it?".[73]
