Great Film overall

Best movie ever!

As Good As It Gets

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Campy disaster movies are great. This was one of the worst, if not the worst movie I have ever seen. Please don't waste your time, I read the reviews and was not dissuaded, bad move.

Thank you for gathering the worst of humanity's shortcomings and putting them in a film for every loser, lowlife and idiot to watch and aspire to. I cannot believe anyone actually 1. paid $$ to produce this and 2. paid $$ to see it. Producers and directors, you are horrible human beings. Actors, seriously? This is what you chose to get your start??

i think Eli Roth gets a raw deal, someone doesn't like him, or is a really bad advertiser??? this movie is really scary, and good! it is very real in terms of what people do in times of catastrophe....sad, but scary!! this movie never came to a theater here, i know trhat. i saw Eli"s other flick, Green Inferno and omg! that movie led me to the advertizsment for this one. they both are so great i bought them both on DVD! PLUS the actress that plays monica is so beautiful! you actually root foe all of these people cuz they are so much like everyone else. so much like one of you in cases of emergency. everyone did a great job! 10 stars!

This is my first review and will try to keep it as short as possible because, hating to bust on any aspiring authors or critics out there most of us don't read the long reviews. There's no need to write a 2,000 word synopsis on any movie,show or whatever here, IMDb already does that for us. We just wanna know if it's any good or not.... oops I guess there goes keeping this short.Anyways, I just watched it this morning so while it's fresh in my mind, is this movie any good?If you like horror, action and/or adventure (along the line of Jaws, though this is no Jaws) you might enjoy this. It has its action, experiencing and trying to escape the earthquake. It's got its scary, borderline intense moments of terror and lots'a blood n' gore. Oh yeah and bonus, some annoying hipsters get killed! Add in a couple of "didn't see that coming" plot twists, a fun ending and you may start moving towards the edge of your seat but, I don't think you'll make it all the way there.Bottom line, it's not a particularly moving piece of cinema but,if you got an hour and a half to kill and you're not paying for it (like me I caught it on cable) It's still better than a lot of the other crap I've seen lately on TV so it's coming in at a solid, watchable but not earth-shaking 6
