Opening in theaters this week is San Andreas, which was directed by Brad Peyton (Journey 2: The Mysterious Island) and follows the aftermath of a massive earthquake in California, and a rescue-chopper pilot (Dwayne Johnson) that makes a dangerous journey across the state in order to rescue his estranged daughter (Alexandra Daddario).
Full of everything you’d expect from a big summer blockbuster, the film delivers a wildly entertaining ride, with our own Matt Donato calling it the “epitome of a summer blockbuster with plenty of eye-popping industrial carnage to behold” in his review.
A few weeks ago during the Los Angeles press day for San Andreas, we sat down with Peyton for an exclusive interview to speak about why the film is not a disaster movie, what he liked about the script, and reuniting with Dwayne Johnson.
Check it out in the video above and be sure to catch San Andreas when it crashes into theatres today.
