This movie was awesome until I ran out of beer. It's like they ran into their time limit, "oops, better throw in some main character deaths before the credits". And you best believe they tacked on a happy ending in the last 4 seconds of the movie, about the world ending. This movie is really fucking long too, I mean; for what it was.

Also, if this event was supposed to happen every 640,000 years (woody mentions the dinosaurs at one point). Wouldn't this have already happened a few thousand times already? And the evidence be really apparent in the soil and rocks that every million or so years the earth changes it's appearance completely.

Stomachable. Once the shit starts 15 minutes in no one is capable of going anywhere or doing anything unless it's by the skin of their ass. They take off in a plane on 3 seperate occasions and each time the ground is falling apart 3 feet behind the wheels or some shit.

Three hours long for something that could have easily been conveyed in two.

Visually, dear god was it a beautiful movie. The budget CLEARLY went into this and, well, this alone. The acting was generally miss and the characters mostly unlikeable. The bad guy from Serenity (forget his name) played his part very well but everyone else just felt like cliche "disaster" fodder.

And the reviews were right about like every possible cliche... From the "Oh no he fell to his death! Oh wait, his hand just dramatically came over the ledge!" moment to the "He didn't make it... He was right behind you... Lets wait twenty seconds and OH THERE HE IS!" ending.

I had fun, it was kind of a cheesy bad enjoyable but it's easily one of the better disaster movies.
