Megafalha

While this Movie was being Filmed, anyone on the Shoot who had Eyes to See should have Called 911 and had Brittany Murphy Admitted to a Hospital. She is Shown here to be Suffering a Physical Ailment that Only Modern Science could Deal With. The Girl was Obviously Sick and this is Proof Captured for Eternity.

The Movie is Better than 2012: Supernova (2009) by a Factor of about 2.0 on the Richter Scale but that is Saying Almost Nothing because that One is the Pits. Speaking of Pits, there are Quite a Few in this Mega Earthquake as Extinction Movie.

If there aren't Enough to Cause Some Serious Damage to a City or Three or Four (its hard to keep score in this as things are seldom very clear as to what is going on, just that something is and their watching it), well then will make a Mega Pit of our own. Say about as big as the Grand Canyon. That'll Show this Upstart Quake who's boss.

The Ending in this, yet another, Made for TV Movie, about the Ending of the World, just Goes On Forever with a Truck setting off Dynamite (by the MegaTons) in an Endless Chase to Outrun a Satellite, while the Aforementioned Sickly Girl keeps Reaching for the Sky at a Rope Dangling from a Helicopter. Does She Reach the Rope? Does the Truck Outrun the Satellite? You'll have to Watch to Find Out.......Or Not!

Sorry I just saw this movie on Blu-ray DVD and found it so bad that I had to comment. Frankly I can't imagine who would invest their money in such a movie. Everything, from the phony special effects, to the plot line, to the characters, to their ongoing absurd childish dialogue, was far fetched and unbelievable.

From the start, which showed snow capped mountains at the WV Appalachian mining site, the viewer knew this movie was going to be unbelievable.

I really think this movie was test run by the movie industry to cut costs by having the writing, production and direction done by sixth graders as a class project.

Man oh man, "Megafault" is your typical movie released by The Asylum. You have the failed actors (Brittany Murphy and Bruce Davison) and the guys who never made it (Eriq La Salle and Justin Hartley) all in a wonderful, horrible action drama with the usual touches of bad script, bad effects, and stone acting, ultimately leading to a fulfilling end.

Murphy is some scientist (there's your first problem) that deals with seismology. Ironically an earthquake erupts during a conference led by some other scientist (Davison). The earthquake/megafault seems to have been started by La Salle's character, it's never exactly explained. Hartley plays Murphy's husband. The film tracks their reactions to the megafault.

I didn't expect anything at all and I wasn't surprised at the end result of a brainless hour and a half. For example we look to the clichéd and hilarious thing where the hero is followed by the crack in the earth, Hartley's character surviving a plane crash that seemed to take both pilot's lives yet he emerges with a crooked tie and a hair out of place, and finally the BS description about all the scientific stuff. Cheesy but fun.

Murphy is alright, but I wasn't expecting much. It's a heckuva film to end your career on, that's for sure. She'll be missed. La Salle is probably the best one here. He doesn't take this ridiculous plot seriously either. Hartley is pretty good too. Davison is more of an extended cameo but he's always fun to watch.

Gist of the movie is brainlessness. It's one of The Asylum's better movies but still has enough ridicule so you can chuckle to yourself the whole way through.

This is the worst disaster movie I have ever seen, and believe me, I have seen far too many.

If you can believe that people can be as stupid as the characters in this movie and that the plot was good enough to pass a 6th grade English class, then this is the movie for you.

I didn't have to write any spoilers. You can easily guess what will be happening in the plot. If you can't guess, then go watch a few good old disaster movies and get yourself an education.

I could not wait for the entire world to blow up so that movie would be over. I had to settle for just turning off the TV.

I think the people making this movie had their hearts in the right place, but the movie turned out to be so crappy. Everything was against the movie from the start; the casting, the story, the CGI effects.

Lets start with the cast. Most people seemed like they didn't have their hearts in the project, as if they were going on autopilot. And, although I never were a fan of Murphy, what is up with her in this movie? She looks like she was on crack.

Moving on to the CGI effects, or lack thereof. Whom have ever seen fissures in the earth opening up and actually track people and cars? Or cracks opening up on one side of the car, then they are magically gone in the next scene, but the car is still driving at the same place. Man, the CGI effects in this movie were poor, no make that pisspoor.

Somehow I managed to make it through the entire movie. I forced myself because I wanted to sit through what was possibly the worst movie I had ever seen at that time.

This movie is bad with a capital B. If you, like me, enjoy finding subtle and in-your-face-obvious mistakes in movies, sit down and watch this one. You will have a paper full of errors. :)
