Emmerich has proved himself the master of disaster

Rating: 6/10 (15 October 2009)

Okay, so some may argue that the plot has some issues to resolve, or that the acting could have been more convincing. But when you watch this movie and take it for what it is, it's a blast!
This is a popcorn movie, much in the style of Independence Day and the forthcoming movie, 2012. You cant treat these movies as deep or thought-provoking. They are made purely for audiences to have a good time. Emmerich(who directed the previously mentioned films) has proved himself capable of making a great summer blockbuster without resorting to cheap, unfunny humour(ahem, Michael Bay).
When you watch this movie, treat it as a fun movie, enjoy the special effects and sit on the edge of your seat as the disasters take place. You wont regret it!
