Epicenter - Wenn die Erde bebt

And here is another one from the guy's of PM entertainment. The people who brought you films like Hologram Man and launched the career of one Evan Lurie. I've seen a lot of movies from these guy's and yes there all nobrainers, lot's of explosions, a lot of rip -offs and second and third rate faces and acting, but fun strange enough. There all made for a shoestring budget and the plot is nowhere to be found but they look good and are quite well crafted. And so we have epicentre with a Traci - no I am not a minor - Lords and Gary Daniels, another PM star. The plot is about some stolen chip, a handy use of a webcam and an earthquake and a lot of it is shot in some ex Iron Curtain Country, try to piece the plot together from other movies in the dull parts.

This movie has the best stunt scenes I have ever seen! I was totally gripped by one of the best 15 minutes in movie cinematic history during the "cadilac" scene. All that carnage happening with people only inches away; It is worth putting your re player on loop just to watch that scene over and over again! The next best stunt scene in the universe is the earthquake scene sure watching the buildings shake on the outside seemed weak enough but it did not distract from the overall thrill ride that I got from the next 20 minutes. This move should be put in a museum and preserved for generations upon generation for the masterpiece that it is. I compare it watching an ECW match back in the day!

I was really looking forward to watching this movie for a while but then I found it was airing on UPN network and that kind of disappointed me. It was a decent action movie but it lacked the martial art fight scenes that I was hoping on since Gary Daniels was starring in it. Gary's role was kind of like a villian role until the end of the movie I didn't really like that. If I were to rate I would rate **out of****.

This film was nowhere near as bad a movie as I was expecting after reading several reviews. Yes it did contain sequences from some other movies, however, I still enjoyed watching it. I thought that Traci Lords playing the main part of Agent Amanda Foster was decent and that her partnership with Gary Daniels worked quite well. In parts, I found it to be quite exciting and thought it moved along at a decent pace. Because this was a low budget movie, the special effects where not that great,however,I have seen much worse. If you do not take this film too seriously,then I think that you should(perhaps surprisingly) be entertained.

"Epicenter" has a neat premise but spotty execution, and is ultimately undone by lousy casting. But it's nowhere near as bad as the dogpile of negative commentators here would have you believe.

Gary Daniels is a techie who tried to sell spyplane plans to a foreign government, but is caught in the act by an FBI agent and stressed single mom laughingly played by Traci Lords.

Suddenly, the Greatest Earthquake Ever Known doesn't send them to the Land of the Lost, but just makes it a little bit more difficult for Traci to deliver Daniels to the proper authorities, while the bad guys try to execute them both.

You know what? This movie was a hoot. It was a low-budget, Traci-Lords-starring, direct-to-video, not-enough-Jeff-Fahey hoot, and all you h8ters can just hush the heck up.

So what if this movie repurposes a scene from "Metro"? Have you seen "Metro"? I wouldn't wipe the schmutz under my nads with the rest of that movie. I'm glad someone put its one decent action scene to a better use.

And to all those folks crying, "Hey, that's the same elevator from 'Speed'!" Find a girl, kiss her, and stop spending your time pointing out similar elevators in movies.

Dollar Tree had this for, yep, a dollar. Not sure I'd spend much more, but glad I laid out the buck for this one.
