positive review

Rating: 10/10 (29 May 2004)

Although the science may be weak the message is worth consideration. If your looking for a 2 hour documentary or educational seminar on global warming this movie is not for you but if you seek entertainment this is good entertainment. Dennis Quaid puts in a good performance and is supported by a capable cast. The opening scene is well shot and a thrilling introduction to the film. The suspense and thrills are well paced and at no point does the movie seem to lag. The portrayal of the powers that be was a bit harsh however, there is a reality in the suffering of the masses because of slow reaction by the government. The story line is typical of the genre but its the visuals that set this movie apart, a visual masterpiece.
