The Storm

I'm shocked at the average rating for this movie/mini series. It's fantastic, and I'm not just saying that because David James Elliott is in it.

This show was not as bad as some of the reviews I read. It was better than Meteor. Must be hiring better writers and crews each film. I liked the second part much better. Seemed to settle into the story and answer my questions from the first half. True, music was distracting at times.It felt like to much info crammed into first half.Could use less split screens effect for my taste. Effects reminded me of the Boeing Satellite systems being used now. I thought Terrell was overacted. He tried to hard to be a villain. I liked the other performances. The stories message was clear change the balance of nature and the world could pay.

I thought I had watched some pretty bad mini-series, but this one was, without a doubt, the worst show I've ever seen. There were no redeeming qualities, not even with any of the actors. Can you guys be so hard up for money you have to perpetuate such garbage? The first hour wasn't great, but it wasn't nearly as bad as the second hour, in which it seems as though the producers felt they had to add non-related scenes, just to prolong whatever they deemed suspense. Even the unbelievable would have been bearable, had it not been for the constant efforts to to inject too many mini-series within a min-series. The airplane scene was completely out of sync with any of the story....there were no characters on the plane that were any part of the rest of the show, so there was no emotional investment in any of the passengers. As a matter of fact, this min-series was so disjointed, there's no emotional investment in any of the characters! Should you get the opportunity to watch this, my advice is don't!

I thought "The Storm" was a movie, I paid 33 Swedish Crowns to hire it, watched 18 minutes and it was all I was able to achieve... This must be, along with "Mortal Combat", the worst production I've ever tried to watch. It is NOT a movie, neither a TV-series, it is a joke, a disgrace to quality, that make me feel ashame of myself because it took me 18 minutes to understand... I'm SOOO tired! There are no reasonable excuses for grown persons with a bunch of money to produce such a stupidity, give me a cell phone and a computer program and I will give you the same (+self instinct)! ADVISE: DON'T SPEND YOUR TIME AND MONEY ON THIS WORTHLESS... I don't even know what to call it!

Not only is this film completely unwatchable and morally depraved...it WAS made with scab labor. The workers on the production went on strike for fair wages and benefits like the actors and production people were getting. It was refused to them and they were locked out. Everyday the union actors drove past the former crew and new crew members were transported in blacked out vans. I believe the quality suffered quite dramatically. They shot the majority of the rest of the shoot in one location inside guarded gates. This film is very badly made and I think it is a fair review to look at what happened during the making of it.

A previous reviewer made false claims of what happened I believe to mislead people... I don't think it is a coincidence that he shares the same name as an actor in the film.
