This Move Seriously Gave ME


A headache. No lie. I felt so stupid.

I could go on and would love to write everything down, but it would take me forever.

The kid's lines?
Dad Dad DAd I'm so *beep* stupid Dad
I want to go home dad
I want to get on the internet dad
Is it fixed Dad
Dad this storm is your fault
I want to walk closer to the storm and get knocked out by flying debris
I want to drop the GPS 40 feet when I am trying to save the world.
Why dad? Why is it like that?
What did he say dad? I don't like what he said dad.
Did they ecdlfdp OMG I'm laughing so hard trying to write this.
Did they explode? The people did they make it? LOL
I'm not eating this it's stale. It's bread you idiot. It's not refrigerated.

The black guy dying?
The black guy writing down the wrong coordinates to save the world.
How did they not hear him repeat the coordinates wrong?
He put a 6 in the coordinates.
They let that slip?

The SUV in the semi trailer? LOLOLOL
The cars and water pipe photoglued in at the end.
The missile sequence. I want to shoot the last rocket, not let the trained professional do it to save the world.

I could go on and on and on and on and on and on.

THe guy EATING PEANUT BUTTER CRACKERS. ARE YOU F%#$CKING Kidding ME? LMAOOOOOO

OMG, well, I was calling the wife Useless Hollywood Breeding Cow for the entire movie. Both the wife and the kid should have gotten blown away by the storm. The rest of this crapfest was really just basic Syfy junk. What's really sad is, they could have used the same budget and done something so much better instead of this happy Hollywood formula garbage. Another waste.

Just knew the word would be headache.

I wouldn't even know where to begin in criticizing the senseless uselessness of this exercise in excrement.

In addition to the characters and the dialogue being as nonsensically vapid as seemingly possible, the continuity in the scenes as it pertains to the storm activity was mind-bogglingly bad.

In one instance, the dysfunctional-but-intrepid family is barely outpacing the tornado in the car, and they speed past a local news crew reporting on the scene (who apparently failed to notice a full scale twister approaching at about 70 mph) who get killed, and then in the very moment of the scene, traffic is traveling in the opposite direction on the road as if they weren't driving into an F4 storm.

While heading for higher ground to escape the devastating weather, as the family approaches the overturned truck with the rapist and his dog, in the distance traffic can be seen moving normally in both directions along the highway despite that an apocalyptic catastrophe is at hand.

They get knocked out of the sky in a helicopter by more extreme weather, miraculously survive unscathed, and the storm is suddenly gone.

Why is the helicopter stuck out on a pad which requires a nature hike through wilderness to find??

The base gets hit by a unexplained flood which kills the soldiers as the storm is bearing down, but as soon as Casper escapes the building, no storm, no sign of waters from anywhere.

The Freakishly Annoying Teenager gets clubbed by a branch as a tornado bears down on the Smokey Bear Ranger Station, Overacting Mother helps him inside the building, and the storm vanishes.

The rising smoke from the distant fire... *steelfisted facepalm*

Fairly early on I concluded that the script seemed to have derived from a "Choose Your Own Adventure" novel, where random crap just pops outta nowhere for no logical reason.

For reasons pertinent to future therapy sessions, I managed to complete watching this turdfest of a viewing experience (and will doubtless reap the consequences in my Netflix suggestions) as though its very existence was a hypnotic disaster in motion.

Mostly I find myself wondering what the people showing up to set to make this crap must think, and how high are they to keep moving forward to post-production?

It gave me annoyance and laughter in equal measure, this movie has to be one of the crappest I've ever seen on Syfy. I know times are tough and you have to take what work you can get especially in the entertainment industry, but did nobody involved have anyone that cared enough about them to say no, don't do it?

The son was especially annoying. I secretly hoped Casper would just forget to tell him and the wife to put their belts on in the helicopter, then he could tip it to one side and out they would go, putting us all out of our misery.
