Skyscraper - Brings Thrills To Super Elevated Heights

We usually feel afraid of heights because of the feeling of falling. If just a few meters is scary, what if you are in the tallest building in the world with 220 floors high, now that is a Skyscraper. Starring Dwayne Johnson, this may be another lead role for him this year, but this one is probably my favorite. 

Skyscraper brings the thrill of heights into a cinematic experience. With modern fascination of building taller buildings, we look for more things that makes its unique. I just love how intricate they had with details, which is very important. With designing a fictional building is already amazing, which would also inspire future real projects. 

The story revolves on Will Ford (Johnson) who works on the facility assessment of the Pearl, the tallest building in the world with over 220 floors. But a covert group planned to target the owner of the building Zhao Min Zhi (Chin Han). The group blows up floors and invokes fire that endangered Ford's family and also pressures Zhao who lives at the penthouse of the building.
