Several things about this movie annoyed me prior to watching it: it’s a reboot of a disaster flick that isn’t any good, it features that immensely vexing bloke from Top Gun: Maverick (2022), and I hate films about the weather – aside from Groundhog Day (1993), which is weather as MacGuffin.
Barrels resembling Quint’s annoyed me. It’s an opening wee scene and a protagonist introduces herself via one of these vlogs and there are barrels in the frame. At least be subtle in your references.
Dialogue was from the dustbin and I could predict almost every other line a character was about to say.
Some of it is good – the effects are splendid. There is at least chemistry between the leads.
But one of the characters is the spitting image of Noah Tannenbaum from season three of The Sopranos, so this loses half a star.
1.5/5.
Wanderings and ... wonderings.
