The End

This movie is a silly stupid 3/10. Not an absolutely horrible 3/10. I would have turned it off if I hated it.

If you have a broken leg and are laid up in bed for awhile then this is passable. If not, do not watch unless you are drunk or high.

Rob Lowe fans will like it. He runs around making idiotic decisions that will no doubt save the day. Kristin Davis is cute as his wife that needs to keep the kids together. The La La La La bamba older brother plays the typical tv ex-husband role. American Pie chick is absolutely horrible and you will want to shoot her whenever she's on screen. Her boyfriend is a total joke and reminds me of the basketball player Sabrina The Teenage Witch wanted to bang in "Drive Me Crazy". The young son has step-daddy issues, that obviously will be addressed and Robbie will become his hero.

The train conductor is the stupidest train conductor on the planet. His partner in crime is smarter but dumber. The three fools in the caboose have no reason to be in the movie except to have a casualty seen. The dude that is the second stupidest train conductor is the one in the trailing engine. The helicopter reporter is lame, her two companions the pilot and cameraman wanted nothing to do with this movie.

If you lasted until the Colorado's Free People's Militia scene you might as well continue watching, because at that point how much worse could the movie get?

The cop and his pregnant wife really just padded the running time.

The President is the dude that does a lot of voice-over work for History channel and is the head vampire in "The Lost Boys".

I cannot believe this was a two night NBC event. WOW, just really, this is what NBC exec's wanted.

I had to edit in these parts that were horrible.... When Kristin Davis goes off-road with her Jeep and the music plays,.....FUNNY AS SH/T.

and when Richie Valens' cop brother confronts the escaped prison person.... Stupid.

and obviously it had to be a Russian bomb.

I could go for days on how sillilly stupid most of this movie was, but I have to run.

Watch at your own risk.
