It's a Disaster movie reviews
“Audiences may not care about this gang when the party starts, but once the dust settles, you’ve gotta admit, they made for pretty good company.” Variety
“Berger’s low-key, likable ensemble film flares with brilliance in its framing concept.” Austin Chronicle
“Cross may not earn the broad recognition he deserves for his performance in It's a Disaster, a droll apocalypse comedy of exceedingly modest scale and even more modest commercial appeal. But it's still a master class in how to play the straight man right.” NPR
“Quirky, funny and a little claustrophobic (by design), it’s confident enough in what it’s trying to accomplish to take the chance on the title. And what he’s trying to accomplish is ambitious.” Arizona Republic
“The movie's funniest touches are quiet flashes of character, expertly timed and nimbly played by a deft ensemble. "It's a Disaster” is consistently funny.” Jim Emerson, Chicago Sun-Times “The end of the world seems like not such a bad thing in Todd Berger's gleefully acidic satire about an awkward brunch that turns into a countdown to actual disaster.” Film Journal Int’l “Imagine THE BIG CHILL crossed with RIGHT AT YOUR DOOR. Cleverly written and well-acted. If you like your comedy ultra-dark, this is worth checking out.” Jo Blo’s Movie Emporium “It's A Disaster takes on a topic that's on everyone's minds, and twists it into a darkly hilarious dramedy with heart.” The Playlist “Writer-director Todd Berger brings a fresh stamp to Armageddon with his sharply scripted comedy It's a Disaster, which is anything but.” The Hollywood Reporter
