I am only 21 minutes into this movie and already there are more holes than pound of Swiss cheese. For instance: A massive storm, the boat is rocking all over the place, people scrambling for cover, big waves, the whole nine yards. One man falls over board into a perfectly calm, what resembles a black bottom swimming pool. Later they're in the kitchen of the boat - everything on the shelves and counters are in perfect order, like they've not been touched at all. Not too mention, the sky is black, thunder crashing, winds blowing and yet strangely on the deck of the ship, the sun is shining and there is no sign of even a mild breeze anywhere. And the acting - WHERE do they get these people that play in these horrible, boring, ridiculous, so called disaster movies.

I only stumbled across this movie while channel hopping with a coffee. This is a terrible film, even if it was a "made for TV" special.The acting is simply awful. It's like watching a bunch of Star Trek fans who have filmed their own episode! Every line is delivered with exaggerated breathless earnestness. It becomes painfully obvious that you're watching a low budget production.The cheesy script and cheesy acting is, at least matched by the cheesy CGI. Digital rain overlaid onto the scene of a bone dry van driving down a bone dry road. Very fake looking clouds, lightning and so on.If this film was a pizza, it'd be a quattro formaggi.On the plus side, if you're in the right frame of mind, it's so bad that it's almost laughably enjoyable! :)

This movie is so bad and yet so funny at the same time that I found myself enjoying it from a humor standpoint. If you are expecting a serious film this one is not it. I would not be surprised if the filmmakers had three days to make this movie with a budget just over $50. I hope so anyway because if the budget was much bigger it would clearly be the worst piece of film work I have seen in my life time. OK, it is still the worst piece of film work on any budget.I am an amateur filmmaker and I can tell you that there is no excuse today for making a movie that looks as bad as this one does. The cinematography is pretty awful. I am easily able to better it with a camera kit that costs just over $1,000 without even putting much effort into it. Honestly with proper lighting techniques I am sure you could best a lot of what you see here with an Iphone camera. Perhaps the most annoying thing, and there are many, is the fact that the story takes place during the onslaught of a huge tornadic storm but all of the exterior shots feature blue sky and sunshine. There are several tutorials I have seen on how to make day shots look like night and some variation of these simple techniques would have helped a lot here. Some minor corrections in post with a cheap piece of editing software also could have done wonders. With the cost of cameras and editing materials today you can do much better then this.Putting aside the way the film looks however this is just a bad movie. Even if you have a better visual experience the acting, story, and visual effects are all pretty horrible. Like I said earlier if you go into this thinking that you want a laugh this might be a good experience. At the very least if you are a beginning filmmaker you will feel good watching this as I am sure your own stuff does not look this bad. If someone can get this work distributed as it is there is hope for everyone. Please just make a better movie then this!

I do not normally say that a movie is horrible. I try to look at the intent of the film,the budget, etc. I know that SyFy Channel movies are not good, that is the fun in watching them... knowing how bad they are. But this film is just plain awful. It was made with such little care that it seems as if the people who made it were hanging around in a parking lot making this film with the camera on their cell phones. This film is completely and utterly ineptly made. Here is an example... part of the film takes place on an oil rig out in the middle of the ocean. OK, I understand that you had no budget and could not afford to film on a real oil rig so you had to film at a land based industrial complex. No problem, that is how films are made. One piece of advice... if you are filming at the previously mentioned land based industrial complex as a stand in for your oil rig in the middle of the ocean try not to capture the trees and telephone polls and streets with cars driving by. This was painful to watch.
