Flood

Flood (2007) is a British disaster thriller you can watch online on iFILM. A violent storm collides with high seas, sending a massive tidal surge down England's east coast and into the Thames Estuary, until the barrier meant to shield London finally gives way.

Marine engineer Rob Morrison (Robert Carlyle) reads the danger long before anyone in charge will listen. With water about to pour through the heart of the city, he has only hours to act, working beside his estranged wife and his stubborn father, whose old calculations turn out to matter more than anyone expected.

Director Tony Mitchell surrounds Carlyle with Tom Courtenay, David Suchet, Joanne Whalley, and a pre-fame Tom Hardy. Adapted from Richard Doyle's novel, it plays as a leaner, grimmer cousin to Hollywood's drowned-city spectacles. Stream Flood (2007) online on iFILM.
