Greenland (2020) - Action Movie Rankings

🎙️🔥 John suits up for Action Movie Rankings with a gritty look at Greenland (2020) — Ric Roman Waugh’s grounded disaster-thriller about one family’s fight to survive when a planet-killing comet (nicknamed “Clarke”) sends the world into chaos. John Garrity (Gerard Butler), his estranged wife Allison (Morena Baccarin), and their diabetic son Nathan find themselves suddenly “selected” for emergency shelter after a fragment slams into Florida, and what begins as an official evacuation turns into a desperate race through collapsing society to reach a safe bunker. John breaks down why Greenland works as an action-thriller more than a CGI spectacle: the film keeps the lens tight on the Garrity family, leaning into road-movie tension, tense set-pieces (evacuation chaos, military checkpoints, and last-minute flights), and Butler’s hard-charging everyman performance. We talk about the movie’s moral backbone — how it mines human decency and selfishness in panic — and whether the film’s restrained, character-first approach gives it more emotional weight than bigger-budget disaster fare.E-mail your fan questions, comments, and suggestions to [email protected] the show by becoming a patron at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon.com/TheRankPodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.Visit The Rank's website for up-to-date rankings at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TheRankpodcast.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
