Very interesting movie, as usual David James Elliott did an excellent job with his character. The movie keeps you glued to the TV to see what will happen next.

1.0 out of 5 stars Zero Stars...Literally!, August 15, 2009

This review is from: The Storm (DVD)

There are some key elements to identifying a poorly made film be it television or large screen: Over use of very close up shots, jerky camera activity, silly post production effects, third rate actors, amature CGI, childish script, obvious amature production quality (lighting, fake rain machines, etc), poor acting, action sequences that bore the viewer, incorherent story lines, rediculous computer input sceens with people typing 300 words per minute while talking. There are more I am sure. Most movies contain some of these elements but in general large screen movies contain fewer then small screen do just as a function of budget differences. I tend to give small screen productions a little slack due to these budget challenges.

That said, The Storm is a rare production. It embraces, with reckless abandon, all of the elements of a substandard movie. Bordering on parody, The Storm is almost unwatchable. Treat Williams, the poor man's Harrison Ford, leads a pedestrian cast of hacks sleep walking through this long, very long, two hour (with ads) movie. Needless to say you sould skip this one. If you do rent or, dare I say, buy this POS, I can promise you will want to keep the remote handy for fast forwarding whole segments.

The Storm is a amazing movie defeintly one that i thought i wouldn't like until it was on, the cast was incredible from James Van Der Beek to Marisol Nichols it was defeintly a movie that kept you guessing what next even though the plot was more of something from CSI it was a movie that deserves more praise then what it got and for a made for tv movie i give it two thumbs up and will get the movie when it comes to dvd and you will too if you like action and suspense and a story line that will keep you guessing until the end.
