The Incident

About This Movie

The Incident (2018) really dives into the chaos following a school science fair gone wrong. You’ve got this quirky atmosphere, where the seriousness of an explosion contrasts with the absurdity of the kids’ interviews. The pacing feels almost like a dark comedy sketch, bouncing from one student’s wild excuse to another’s bizarre alibi. It’s interesting how it tackles themes of accountability and creativity gone awry, all while keeping a light-hearted veneer. The performances are notable, especially from the younger cast, bringing their characters to life with a mix of innocence and mischief. Not a lot of heavy CGI here, just honest performances and the absurdity of the situation that really makes it distinctive.
