This was so terrible...


This movie was pretty bad, but somehow I couldn't stop watching. I'm just glad I didn't pay to see it.

You think this was bad?
Watch Earthquake and Inferno from the '70's.
That's cheesy bad!
But the worst movie ever was Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie.
Rather than watch that movie, I would rather slide down a giant razor blade into a flaming pool of vomit, being rescued and then beaten by 10 guys with baseball bats, have a dozen pigs *beep* in my mouth and then wash it down with a bucket of jizz and then get stuck and dragged on the underside of a car at 100mph on a dirt and gravel road rather than watch that movie!
IF YOU PRODUCED OR FINANCED ERIC AND TIM"S BILLION DOLLAR SUCK *beep* MOVIE - PUBLICLY APOLOGIZE!

I'm 33minutes into it. I'm calling it quits. I've been watching way to many bad movies lately, I usually don't turn them off (I do, but it's rare...well....) bjt I can't help it now!

Everyone sees what you appear to be, few experience what you really are.

I had to google this movie to see if it is a serious movie or a spoof. I can't believe how bad it is. It's too bad too, because I think the concept is good enough to be a fun (although not actually good) action movie reminiscent of some 90s movies.

I'm about there at 20 minutes in. Every scene just seems like boilerplate Emmerich disaster scene. And patently unbelievable.

If the Hoover Dam collapsed, the country would shut down; people would be flipping out from coast to coast.
Instead, the media and the seismologists and the helicopter rescue guys just collectively mope around. They would all be mobilized instantly after such an event.




I couldn't believe when I read his filmography that he played a toilet (no joke) in According to Jim

This was a cliche fest, from start to finish. take your 70's disaster movie script, insert locations and actors to suit and play the same stuff over and over. The actors did a good job but they were working with the same worn out cookie cutter script. If you haven't seen it yet, bring lots of ham to go with all the cheese.
Please hollywood, stop counting on beautiful people and beautiful effects to carry worn out crap to the finish line. Actually WRITE a decent script !!!

There was so much destruction that it reminded me of Man of Steel...except...The Rock saved more people than Superman. 0_0

This film was like a big budget version of Sharknado.

-Mom divorced father who is struggling accepting that the mother moved on.

-Mother is dating a rich snob who only cares for himself.

-Gigantic disaster happening in the background yet every main character has plot armor.

-Father goes on a rescue mission to save his family and win back his ex wife.

-Random inconsistent water levels picking and choosing what part of the city to harass.

-Random helicopter having engine failure.

-Father saves the girl in the most over the top way possible.

-Survivors smile and look into the distance.

It was exactly Sharknado with a bigger budget.

The acting was tolerable, but there was so much boob-bouncing that i couldn't tell when the quaking stopped

LMAO!!!!
So, people hate bad movies? Really? I'm entertained by this kind of crap. It's pure escapism, and that's exactly what this offering is intended to be. This is Hollywood at it's worst, yet it's best. This movie wasn't tosses together to win an Academy award, it was presented as an action, adventure, take me as I am, cheese fest. If you tuned in expecting an award winner, too bad. The Rock hasn't been in anything resembling an award winner yet, and you were expecting different here? PLEASE!

Chees factor - *****
Dead Brain Cells - *****
Fun - *****
