The Disaster guy attacks again

Rating: 8/10 (16 November 2009)

The return-to-form vehicle for Emmerich. This movie delivered exactly what was promised through the trailers and promotions. Get some good stars to play the roles, get some visual specialists, put in chaos everywhere. There....bang for buck for the director as well as the audience. The visual effects were pushed to the maximum in this one. But the movie had a lot of lagging moments especially in the middle parts. And I was happy to see someone putting out a message like "We are the children of our Earth" in a movie. All in all..this movie must be a relief for emmerich after his debacle 10000 BC. Good entertainment and bang for buck :).
