Great FX- Sorry story.

Rating: 6/10 (31 May 2004)

I expected great special effects and a ludicrous story and I got what I paid for (remember "Twister"?).
Honestly- the hackneyed plot devices brought some nice comic relief. Wolves, bald-headed-cancer-kid, etc... good for a chuckle between cool scenes of Mother Nature gone mad. Yes there is some preachy enviro-propaganda but it is so over the top I don't see how anyone would take it seriously. Fer Pete's sake- it's just a movie... buy some popcorn and enjoy the ride. I DO have to wonder if anyone can make a disaster movie with characters I really care about.... But then maybe it wouldn't be so fun to watch.
