Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.
Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
paulie1979 How actors can go with errors and lies in script is beyond me, hundreds of thousands & millions of years what rubbish, the earth time and time again even by some of the top scientists on the planet, has disproved this and proved the earth as God says is only about 6000 years old not millions, it is called the theory of evolution not the fact of evolution. Evolution is controlled by a cult who force it into schools, they are called (Smithsonian) these people hate god and want you to believe your not created by an almighty being but a bacteria, an animal who has no use or importance what so ever, if we are millions of years old how come 100 years ago we had nothing, it just in past 100 years or so we progressed with inventions etc, there are flood legends in over 250 cultures globally telling of the flood of Noah (NOT RUSSEL CROWS NOAH, HE WAS PURE EVIL AND THE FILM WAS A COMPLETE LIE) NOAH WAS A JUST MAN A KIND AND GODLY MAN, NOT THE MAN Hollywood MADE HIM and absolute proof it happened, evolution is taught and brainwash people with lies and false evidence, science definition 1 test, 2 observe 3 conclude, not 1 make up, 2 do not test and do not observe 3 believe in fairy tails, look at drdino.com or go to noahthemovie.com and wayofthemaster.com watch the videos and evidence about earth, the flood universe etc, if we are millions of years old why the earth still magnetised, magnets do not last millions of years, teaching evolution is what made Hitler the man he was, he was brainwashed by Darwin, who did not invent evolution Darwin was brain washed by the guy who made up evolution, big thumbs down on this film
mason_612 I watched this Canadian-made (BC) TV movie all the way through, just to see how bad it could get. I was not disappointed. This is the kind of movie that insults your intelligence, even if it is a work of fiction. This Canadian says that this is the kind of stuff that gives all Canadian movies a bad name. The "science" stuff was pure junk, with the final solution to preventing the end of the world coming from a 15-year old kid with a generator made of scotch tape and pop cans. The family problem sub-plot was totally superfluous, with his mother worrying about her lack of compassion etc, right at the time of crucial execution. We find out that the teenage whiz-kid is actually her sister's son, but we never find out, and no ever mentions his father. WE are left to assume that his adoptive father maybe is actually his real father, or not. Sorry, 2 out of ten, no more
disdressed12 this movie is too melodramatic at times and gets bogged down in dialogue and subplots that don't really advance the story,in my opinion.the acting is not bad,especially from Noel Fisher who plays Jeremy Landis,the teenage son of the lead female character Dr.Valery Landis(Joanna Pacula)a weather specialist.there is at least 1 positive thing about the movie,and that is the scenes involving the lightning storms.the effects are fairly well done, int his regard.i certainly didn't hate this movie,but i do wish it had focused more on the storm aspect than the family issues.it kind of felt like 1 of those 'Lifetime' channel movies.if you don't mind that kind of movie,then you will probably like this 1.if not,you might want to avoid it.i'd have to say this movie is average,so 5/10 seems fair.
willshack How bad can a made for TV movie get? We may have a new standard here. Besides the fact none of this movie made any sense which I can tolerate, the writing and acting was so bad it makes me think that even I could make living writing cable movies using nothing but tired clichés and nonsensical plot lines.I just love the fact that as the world is about to be destroyed, all that these wooden characters could talk about was how they were going to reconcile their unbelievably mundane family issues. It was almost as if the supposed devastating lightning storm (which we see destroy various world monuments in what can only be described as "Plan 9 from Outer Space" quality special effects) was a subplot.I saw this at 2 AM after getting home from a function and not being able to sleep. It was either this mess or paid programming, I regret not turning to watch the Ronco guy.
