Completely Pointless

Rating: 1/10 (3 July 2005)

Yeah you heard me! Completely pointless movie! A Tom Cruise commercial. News flash, Tom Cruise is not that great. As always the child actor, Dakota, stole the show. Indeed, was this film a father daughter/son story? No. A disaster movie? I guess. Was there a plot? No. Just massive destruction. Suspense? Not really. Maybe the film was suspenseful for a 1950s' audience but not for today's. Not that we have become incredibly sophisticated, the movie just wasn't very scary. I gave it one star for the special effects. That is all the movie deserves. I want my time and money back! Well actually, it was what I expected going in: a disaster flick with some heart. But unfortunately the movie didn't connect on any level.
