This movie covers the aftermath of the 1976 Tangshan earthquake and follows two families coming to grips with the disaster. I wouldn't class this movie as a disaster movie more of a family drama stretching over a few decades.
It is interesting to watch if you want to see China coming out of the cultural revolution and into its capitalist era in the 90s/00s. There is a bit of propaganda making the PLA look good, but it can easily overlooked if you know its there.
After a good start the movie gets a bit slow in the middle and fails to show key moments in the end.
