5.0 out of 5 stars Underrated, June 15, 2007

This movie is seriously underrated. As a resident of Oakland, CA when the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake occurred, I was somewhat right in the middle of the real event, so I think I can safely revue the realism aspect of this movie. Well acted, well written and entertaining, this movie acurately portrays the real events of Oct. 17, 1989 well enough to bring flashbacks to those of us who lived this real life tragedy. If you haven't seen this movie yet, give it a try, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

This was a movie that kept me on the edge. Never heard of some of the actors like Nicholas Zaniovich but I understand he played himself,that made it more interesting, to have a unknown play himself He did a great job. Hope to hear more about him. Jack Scalia is always a solid actor. Nicely done well worth seeing
