Goofs

When they say that from a quake of magnitude 6 to 8, it's not a factor of two but 1 million, it's wrong. 1 unit of magnitude difference is 32 times. So here a magnitude 8 is 1,024 times more powerful than a magnitude 6, not 1 million. That would be a difference of 4 magnitudes.

User Reviews

A great intense disaster movie

The movie starts a little slow but when disaster strikes, it becomes very intense. The acting was very realistic, the CGI was excellent and the music gave the movie a whole new level of intensity.
