What makes a good cli-fi movie successful and resonate with both critics and audiences? Here are 3 criterion to remember.




For a cli-fi movie to be useful and successful in reaching viewers and communicating climate issues either directly or indirectly, there are three criterion that need to be taken into account.

1. The first criterion for a good cli-fi movie: it addresses climate change clearly and directly.

2. The second criterion for a good cli-fi movie: it’s a solid piece of filmmaking. 

3.  And three:  the third criterion for a good cli-fi movie: Does it promote effective public engagement with climate change?

So let's apply these 3 criterion to all future cli-fi movies in reviews and in academic papers. There is still a long way to go with cli-fi movies as the 21st century moves into the 2020s and 2030s and 2040s.

  3. It's a solid piece of prose writing, from beginning to end, with a title, memorable or eye-catching, to match. And with characters worth following and caring about.
