what a dreadful movie . the effect be poor and especially by today standard and but that be forgivable . what be unforgivable be the terrible rehashing of every flood or dam break disaster movie ever make into this piece of trash . the acting be awful and i mean awful . the point in the story where michelle green stop to rescue a dog from the approach torrent be hilarious . they see the water approach and run for their life . ( by the way they have to find a very old fat dog so as to not make m green look to unfit ) . they manage to outpace the water for some time before take refuge . what speed . later and a speeding car be not fast enough to escape the torrent . god and she and that dog do run fast . if you want to watch a good movie about a dam break this isn not it . porchlight entertainment turn out some good family film but this time they just miss the mark .
