Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype
Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
LeonLouisRicci 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!
ktpinnacle Truck Driver . . . ."I've got a quake on my tail!" This is a just one of many memorable lines from this testimony to the scientific dumbing down of America, and particularly American Cinema. Years ago, I thought that "Volcano" was as bad as it could get, wasting the acting chops of Tommy Lee Jones and providing insult after insult to those with a general appreciation of the way the earth works. But no, SyFy has provided us with a series of cataclysms (and I refer to their movies, not the storyline) that reach depths never before attempted. No effort was expended to bring realism to this picture. Therefore it produces no emotions in the viewer, besides shame that the time was wasted. Previous reviewers have a fine job taking this film apart, and I could take each scene and provide scientific criticism, but why? When there was no time spent by Paul Bales and Asylum, why should I?The film is rated PG-13 for disturbing images, how accurate. To those actors whose names appear in the cast, I honor your efforts and your need to make a living. I hope that for the rest of your lives you can avoid associations with pictures like Megafault.Never thought I'd look forward so much to the next showing of Dante's Peak.
15231 WOW!!!! Bad acting. Preposterous plot. Impossible science. Horrible dialogue. Low grade special effects. Hyper-melodrama. Padded scenes. More technical, geographical and continuity errors than can be counted. Yep, this one had all the ingredients for a "B" movie. I love the "B" movies of the 50's and 60's because they are bad and know they are bad, but are presented just for the shear fun of it. Had this made-for-TV movie had that attitude, I would have been all for it. Unfortunately, this one wants to be serious.Now it's just BAD.Even my ten-year-old spotted the problems with the faults chasing cars; the untested sonic wave machine conveniently already up on a satellite ready to save the planet; and the fact that huge quakes were seen destroying buildings, yet when the characters were on the street, there never were any broken windows or debris in any of the backgrounds to suggest something catastrophic had just happened.By the time this one ended, I really was scratching my head as to why anyone invested money to make this thing.
simon3818 I hate rubbishing peoples work. But.... This film looks great on the packaging, sounds like a great idea - A Mega Fault to rip the world apart. Now, lets get one definition out the way "World - anywhere within the USA" Explosions set off a seismic event triggering earthquakes big enough to rip a gash in the USA. No one else in the world feels it at all; this gap can be seen from space and the rest of the world carry on like nothing happening? Repetition of scenes - I watched it and thought "hang on, I've just seen that". I blinked once and missed the plot, blinked again and missed any form of character development. Didn't have a clue who they were (only the old bloke being in V back in the 80's) didn't know what they were doing and why. There was no effects on how this event changed the rest of the world, er sorry, USA and no sign of a president.I don't think I'll include this on the Wet Sunday list and I beg of all of you who do watch this, Don't make it an impression you have of the late Brittney Murphys work.
