Highly Overrated But Still Good

Good start, but then it gets ruined

Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.

What COULD have been a good movie with a strong message about climate change ? turned out to be a melo drama in disguise.While I DID watch this movie at no cost ? I STILL want my money back.So, the girl hurts her LEFT LEG but he helps her walk by having her walk on her bad leg and he supports her on the side with her good leg.This movie damaged me in some way.But wait, if mysterious tornadoes aren't enough, how about some ball lightening. I kept asking - it that Brad Pitt ? AVOID this one unless you like dog food mixed with hot wax from crayons inside sausage wrappers dipped in jelly baked at 700 degrees F for 9 hours and then frozen in liquid nitrogen.

So I'm usually up for watching a good action flick. But this one just kills. Literally if the acting wasn't bad enough the burning of my eyes from the crappy special effects should be a good idea how bad this movie was. I know that I am never going to get back that 3 hours of my life. The red spot when you saw it as one person commented really did remind me of something you would see on Star trek the original series. I would not be recommending this movie to anyone. Yet another Canadian movie that for some reason they can't have it happen in a Canadian city always has to be the good old USA that has to save the day give me a break. No offense meant.

I like disaster movies. I even like the bad ones. But this - this goes beyond bad into utterly dire.The characters are walking, talking clichés straight out of better disasters movies. Every single plot point is signposted ages before it arrives, and every situation is utterly predictable.The writing and directing between them manage to suck all tension and excitement out of the story. The writing is obvious - and dull - and there is no build-up of tension at all. This is quite a talent. This writer has made a tornado hitting New York mind-numbingly dull. And the direction is of the 'point, shoot, move on to the next shot' variety.As for the effects - c'mon guys, you've been doing special effects for nearly 100 years now - you can do better than this! Don't watch this. ever. It's two hours of your life you'll never get back and you'll regret it.

Possibly (one of) the worst TV films ever.A huge atmospheric problem centred over the US, as usual, has a grudge against New York and its inhabitants. Apparently global warming is here to bite Americans in the ass.Besides the annoying TV newslady commentating throughout the movie, far harder to watch is the very crappy special fx. The acting is cringeworthy, but this isn't to say that the actors can't act. Well, they can't in this one, but I think that has more to do with the ridiculous dialogue and poor directing.Actually, this movie has really got me bored. I may have finished watching it, but I couldn't bother to carry on writing about it. DON'T BOTHER WITH THIS ONE!!!
