Diane Ruth An epic saga of survival when humanity is threatened by rampaging seas rising after a gigantic tectonic shift in the earth. Gifted director Peter Geiger has brought this to the screen with vision and magnificent style, utilizing breathtaking special effects and incorporating stunning imagery. Geiger's inspired camera pans a vast landscape of devastation and roiling oceans, with never-ending vistas of a planet virtually drowning. Scientists and technicians build a awe-inspiring ark on which to save the DNA of life on Earth and to rebuild civilization in the future. The suspense and terror are intense and at times the plight of these survivors is overwhelming. A superb cast supports this first-class production, with Monica Keena, always reliable in every role, a particular standout in this film. An intelligent script, incredible science fiction adventure elements, and a prophetic message for our time, this is a motion picture of fantastic grandeur.
gatorsoft If you are desperate/ bored/high enough to watch this movie, try this little game: Count how many times the phrase "let's go!" is heard in the film. I swear some characters say it 5 times in a 60 second clip.It really is like someone set out to make a film that was bad in every way possible. If you can appreciate the sheer absurdity of its badness, then you might enjoy it. On the other hand, if that's what you're looking for, I would say Attack of the Killer Tomatoes is a better choice. This movie is kinda of like an aquatic Damnation Alley, but much worse than that bomb.It would have been fun to be in the screening room the first time that it was shown to investors. I would guess that the producers had a metal detector to go through before entering the screening room to insure none of the backers were armed.The black, gray, and blue camouflage is kinda cool looking though. Disclaimer: I've never produced a movie, and if I attempted to do so, it would probably be even worse than this one. I hope that I would have the sense to never let anyone see something so bad.
eblien Probably the worst movie I have ever seen. I cannot decide if it is so bad it becomes funny (like Plan 9 from Outer Space) or just plain boring bad, perhaps so bad it becomes interesting; how did they accomplish? It looks like everyone know this is going to be really really really horribly wrong, so they don't even bother to try.CGI is used for everything and it looks like something from an average PC game. And when this bad CGI is not used for something "dangerous", then we see some bored faces looking like they don't know what the hell is going on, whether they should look frightened or bored, camera panning back and forth, and then afterwards the other will tell you what just happened, like "oh, he just died" or "oh, she nearly died" (everything with the same lame "but we couldn't care less" expression).Oh my god.
cink-1 I've never written a review, but I had to for this one.... it was that bad! The acting, the action, the writing.... the entire movie was a waste of space.... and I normally like cheesy disaster movies.....One thing in particular irked me.... when they are in the ark, and the crew is looking out - supposed to be steering it - you never see it from their viewpoint...and every time they are supposed to be jostled, you can see the middle guy visibly make himself jump - usually after the bump occurred....SO, in short...save yourself - Do not watch!!!! There are other 'bad' disaster movies that are better...and there are better disaster movies
