I was quite surprised to see the negative reviews for the film. In fact the reviews for this film is quite critical in comparison with Volcano. But the direction of the movie and certain technical aspects of the film are better than volcano. Certain scenes may have been quite unrealistic & predictable but it still was able to evoke enough thrills for a disaster film. Pierce Brosnan was perfectly cast for the role, in fact the producers must have encased on his popularity of being the Bond. But the chemistry between Brosnan and Hamilton was not encouraging in fact someone else could have been casted in the role of Linda Hamilton and the mid portion of the film could have been edited or showcased in a better manner.
Overall the film can be ranked as one of the most under-rated disaster films of all time had it been for better editing and casting.
