The Rescue reviews

The Rescue holds a 8.0/10 average from 281 TMDB ratings.

Well-done! I appreciated the effort that was spent on the reconstruction of the cave, as that was one thing that was quite unclear to me when reading about this in the news. I also thought the integration of the true footage with recreations was done tastefully. Amazing that they got all the kids out!

The enthralling, against-all-odds story that transfixed the world in 2018: the daring rescue of twelve boys and their coach from deep inside a flooded cave in Northern Thailand.
