Rating:  - Nice for a rainy weekend..
As I understand, this is a follow up from another mini series. Since I never saw the previous one, I was a bit surprised to how this begins. The movie (wich is really a 2 part mini series, also put together as a 2 parter on this disc) really begins in the middle of a starting disaster. No intro story whatsoever. I even checked to see if I didn't somehow accidentally started the disc somewhere in the middle instead of beginning. Anyway, once started, it really keeps going.
Like I say in the title, I thought it was a nice filling for a rainy weekend (wich it was now here), and in my case a saturday evening and sunday afternoon. I rated it 3 stars since it is a tv series. Was it a "real movie" for the cinema's, I proabably would have given it 1 or 2 stars. But as a tv series or tv-films go, I think this was quite entertaining.
The acting isn't top notch but barable enough. It is really all action so once started there's never a real dull moment, wich is good I think. Focus everything on the action and people won't notice the b-acting and mediocre CGI, I guess is what the makers were thinking. ;) And it works. The CGI is of mediocre quality I think but then again, this is a few years old now and I guess they don't get as a big of a budgets for these things as for cinema-movies with big stars in it. And keep in mind that really LOT is going on! I mean almost half of the US is being destructed here!
Yes, in my opinion a nice filler for a long rainy day or 2. Especially if you like disaster movies. And the price is more than fair. Though I do wonder if you shouldn't get the dvd instead of the BR since I didn't had the idea the picture was really "Blu Ray worthy." And the sound is only regulal stereo wich is a shame. This kind of thing screams SUBWOOFER ofcourse, but alas..

WOW this movie is really the extreme. Many people do not know the geological history of our country and this movie just hits on the possibilities. The fact that this could happen remains a mystery--but then again--if we knew what was to come of us--whats the point in living.
Rating: - If you've seen one you've seem them all.
If you've seen one made-for-TV geological disaster movie, you've seem them all. This is just like all the others, and I like it because I enjoy disaster films. Expect cheap computer graphics and a predictable plot, but it's fun to watch.
Rating: - Could This Happen?
This is a great movie and it makes you stop and think could this really happen? I say yes it could and its slowly getting to that point here on mother earth
Rating: - Not BLU-RAY Copied from DVD
Great Movie for Disaster buffs but one being in the computer video business i easily spotted the fake... this is a dvd copied onto a blu-ray disc i know it's my business to spot video flaws even the video files say MPEG-2 DVD..
GREAT MOVIE Even CAL-TECH & JPL watched this one with amusement...
this movie made for great laughter at CAL-TECH.....
