NEW ON BLU-RAY
10.5 Apocalypse
A massive 10.5 quake tears apart the West Coast, triggering an unrelenting series of natural disasters that threaten to turn the American landscape into a hellish wasteland. Seismologist Samantha Hill (Kim Delaney, TV's Army Wives) sees an even greater threat: an ever-widening fault line that's heading for the country's two largest nuclear reactors. As the rumbling fault line continues to grow, Samantha races to find the one scientist who predicted this would happen years ago--and who can save millions from the ultimate nuclear apocalypse.

10.5 Apocalypse: The Complete Miniseries [Blu-ray] Reviews:
Blu-ray brings out more than just the details!
2008-10-06 - Reviews, and reviewers, can be sooooooo tedious. I have been recommending this video presentation for 2 and a half years. It is a must have for all West Coasters, especially Californians. Yea, I believe its helpful to have, (I've given away about 9 copies to date).

As relates to the Blu-ray version: I see more dust particles, more degree of light to shadow clarity, and a better sense of depth perception. There is nothing wrong with the regular DVD version, the Blu-ray just gives you more.

Good Movie
2008-10-02 - This is a good movie. It has a few parts that are cheaply made, but overall this is a good movie.

If You Liked The First One...
2008-08-31 - ...then you'll probably like this one, since it's practically the same movie. I myself really liked the first one. It was fun on a no-brainer level and the cast, led by the very likable Kim Delaney, was at the very least capable, given what they had to work with. It sounds like I'm bashing these films, but really I'm not. I enjoyed both of them, but I have to admit this one left me slightly disappointed for two reasons. Warning, spoilers ahead!!


1) The death of David Cubitt's character barely an hour into the film. I thought he was a good partner and possible love interest for Kim Delaney's character and the way that he was eliminated was ridiculous, to the point where I seriously thought they were going to bring him back towards the end, bruised but still alive. And after a short crying episode from Kim, he's never mentioned again! Not once in the whole second half of the film! Not even when her father comes back. Weird!

2) The way too abrupt ending. Honestly, when I noticed that there was only three or four minutes left to the film and the fault line was still heading towards the coast, I thought "there must be another part to this" or perhaps the DVD inexplicably left out the ending. But no, the fault line hits the Gulf Of Mexico, the President utters a ten second speech, and the end credits pop up! Are you kidding me? What happens to the rest of the cast? Yes, the Oliver Hudson character and his wife make it (in my opinion the least interesting characters), but what about the President's daughter and the doctor she was working with? What about the woman who was heading up the rescue efforts in Las Vegas? Didn't she need closure too, considering at the beginning of the film she was still reeling from an accident a year or so prior to this? All these subplots are thrown to the wind. One almost gets the impression that the filmmakers ran out of money and just tacked on the ending.

So, in conclusion, yes the film is flawed, but hey, these films aren't meant to be taken seriously, so sit down, put your brain in neutral and enjoy.

Really Good.
2008-08-06 - This movie was incredible! It was a good movie, only the rescue operations in Vegas was almost boring, because it was too long. But my favorite part was the fault line. Those were the exciting parts. This thing
has volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, and more. "Apocalypse" means everybody DIES, and nobody lives.? Well, for those people who like disaster movies, this is totally worth buying.

Nice for a rainy weekend..
2008-07-20 - As I understand, this is a follow up from another mini series. Since I never saw the previous one, I was a bit surprised to how this begins. The movie (wich is really a 2 part mini series, also put together as a 2 parter on this disc) really begins in the middle of a starting disaster. No intro story whatsoever. I even checked to see if I didn't somehow accidentally started the disc somewhere in the middle instead of beginning. Anyway, once started, it really keeps going.
Like I say in the title, I thought it was a nice filling for a rainy weekend (wich it was now here), and in my case a saturday evening and sunday afternoon. I rated it 3 stars since it is a tv series. Was it a "real movie" for the cinema's, I proabably would have given it 1 or 2 stars. But as a tv series or tv-films go, I think this was quite entertaining.
The acting isn't top notch but barable enough. It is really all action so once started there's never a real dull moment, wich is good I think. Focus everything on the action and people won't notice the b-acting and mediocre CGI, I guess is what the makers were thinking. ;) And it works. The CGI is of mediocre quality I think but then again, this is a few years old now and I guess they don't get as a big of a budgets for these things as for cinema-movies with big stars in it. And keep in mind that really LOT is going on! I mean almost half of the US is being destructed here!

Yes, in my opinion a nice filler for a long rainy day or 2. Especially if you like disaster movies. And the price is more than fair. Though I do wonder if you shouldn't get the dvd instead of the BR since I didn't had the idea the picture was really "Blu Ray worthy." And the sound is only regulal stereo wich is a shame. This kind of thing screams SUBWOOFER ofcourse, but alas..
