Featured reviews
My wife loves to watch disaster movies, and has no qualms about watching bad ones. As such, this movie qualifies.
The rationale for the events in this movie is entirely incomprehensible. There are two scientists (a woman and her boss) that discuss what could amount to an Extinction Level Event with less concern than you might while pondering where you should go for lunch.
The main character, his family, and another family drawn into this drama make nonsensical decisions one after another. It's definitely not "exciting", but you'll watch with wonder as they do it. The teenage daughter is one of the worst humans depicted on screen.
The effects and props are some of the cheapest I have seen.

I have just turned this movie off with five minutes still to go, because I really had had more than enough!
Truly this movie is awful and as the tension is supposed to rise, the glazed boredom just gets more pronounced. I was astonished to find it was made in 2016, the special effects (so few as there were) were awful. There wasn't a single heart-stopping moment and the endless driving around in various cars on completely empty roads was pathetic!
Maybe I should have looked at IMDb before I watched it, I mean it was being shown this morning on Freeview television in England so that gives you some idea of how awful it is. The script is so mind- bogglingly bad, I almost felt sorry for the actors having to speak it - but the actors themselves were generally so dull and disinterested that you felt they knew what a clanger the finished article was going to be.
And I thought film making had improved over the years - not if this is anything to go by!

Dire. Best bit was when the two teenager got blown to bits with a direct lightening strike, (but survived of cause, like you do). A lot of time spent looking at blank sky's and trees not the littlest bit stormy. I'm defiantly in the wrong job if folks can get paid to turn out this sort of very boring trash.
Well I watched it - I fell asleep. Not much of a plot, irritating teens, lacklustre characters with no depth. If you are having trouble sleeping put this on and you will drift off into slumberland pronto.
How ANYONE rated this movie more than 3 stars is ridiculous! Worst acting. A bunch of staring at the sky, sulking, worried looks, ENDLESS driving around in a town as bout as big as a postage stamp, and extremely wooden performances. I was HOPING the cast would get killed! It's that bad!
Lame story, lame relationships, JUST LAME!
Avoid it 😳
