And this is how the world ends

Rating: Null/10 (22 June 2004)

Don't think! Just watch! That should be the printed on the posters. It just a good enough film to showcase a few special effects. And here is a newsflash... ITS LIKE ALL OTHER DISASTERS FILMS BEFORE IT. I did enjoy the special effects and the less than passable storyline. But you have to remember that this movie sole purpose is to entertain. To destroy stuff and to give that false hope that they give us in every flick of this nature. I did like the special effects but it wasn't enough destruction for the story that was being provided. These are the same guys that brought us ID4 and it seemed they had some left-over special effects they wanted to use. They are certainly no writers due to the lame and over used dialogue, but dialogue is not the point of this picture. This film is also best seen on a big screen. I saw it at a drive in with a bunch of friends and this is the perfect drive-in movie. This is the film to eat popcorn, drink sodas, stuff yourself with hotdogs and when it's over there is nothing to really think about. Its good entertainment to waste time with family and friends. It's not thought provoking, not controversial and you will not be blown away, but it's good cheesy fun and we all need those types of films from time to time. So go to the drive in and watch the world get destroy.
