I bought this movie on Vudu as a fan of similar films (Twister, Volcano) and actors in the project (Amy Smart, Trace Adkins). Wasted money. The director adds social commentary to the backdrop of severe weather. LGBT issues, racial inequality, abortion issues, and white people behaving badly appear to be the primary focus of the film, instead of the ability and courage of humanity to cope with extreme weather and survive the aftermath. A homosexual male couple face the difficulties involved in combining out to conservative parents. Racial slurs and mistreatment of Hispanic illegals by white people included to "shock" viewers. We even get the opportunity to experience the debate concerning abortion. A verifiable mess with minimal resolution does not make an enjoyable film.
