Excellent Summer Fun !!

Rating: 10/10 (17 May 2004)

Every Year I look forward to the "Big Summer Movie" and this one is it !! It is fun and fast paced when necessary but slows down when the plot warrants. I highly recommend the film for it's exquisite special effects, (and I'm a fan of special effects when they were real- no computer graphics for EARTHQUAKE). Don't even bother looking for a political message because you would have to have a chip on your shoulder to locate one. I will not spoil any of the scenes, but I will say that the movie delivers but it does have some necessary inaccuracies, such as: the timeline for the development of an ice age would be somewhere around 10,000 years- we only have a couple of hours in a film so of course this element is exaggerated. I can't wait for the DVD. Don't miss this one.
