Movie Overview: San Andreas (2015)

• The Fault: It is a continental transform fault that extends roughly 1,200 kilometers through California. It forms the tectonic boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate.
• The "Big One": The film dramatizes a worst-case scenario often referred to by scientists as "The Big One"—a hypothetical mega-earthquake expected to hit California eventually.
• Accuracy: Seismologists have noted that while the fault is real, the magnitude of destruction and the visual scale of the tsunami in the movie are exaggerated for Hollywood effect. A tsunami caused by the San Andreas fault would likely be much smaller in height than depicted in the film.
