Compelling earthquake disaster film
by Calicodreamin β€’ 2019-07-22
6/10

"Considering this is a made for TV movie, the acting and sets were actually pretty good. Definitely a low budget film, but they play to their strengths and keep the sets small so the disaster scenes look credible. The few cgi tv news reels could have been better (i.e using real footage) but it didn't take up too much air time. The separate storylines were compelling and credible. The ending "1 year since quake" interviews could have been better...."

πŸ’‘ Did You Know?

Due to the inclusion of "news bulletins" and "interviews", the New Zealand Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management had to pre-warn people that the film was a dramatization, just in case people switched to it and thought an actual earthquake had hit Wellington.
