        Once outside, after Ray tried to revive Blake, she is now back to her life and finally reunites with her family. The family along with Ben and Ollie watch the sunset, on the destroyed geography and aftermath of the San Francisco Bay Area.

Reaction

        The movie was about the California's San Andreas fault that had a massive earthquake and aftershocks with a magnitude of 9 followed by a tsunami. I have also seen how the p-waves moves in the surface as the energy in the earth's interior travels during the earthquake.
