Great Fun!!

Rating: 8/10 (29 May 2004)

I have to admit - I love disaster flicks. I'm also always ready for some cheesy-good fun. If you fall into either of those categories, this movie is for you. I loved it. I was captivated from beginning to end. There was only one CGI special effect I could have done without, and I'll withhold that info since it would be a spoiler. But I will say, for the most part, the special effects were amazing. However, if you're looking for a realistic view of the effects of global warming, you probably won't like it. Just suspend reality for a couple of hours and enjoy. Very respectable acting from the principals, Dennis Quaid, Jake Gyllenhaal and Emmy Rossum were great. I wouldn't bet on the academy award for any of them, but they did a great job. Go see it!! You won't regret it.
