Disaster Wars: Earthquake vs. Tsunami (2013)
Deep underwater in the Marianas Trench an accident results in a devastating Tsunami that destroys the Hawaiian Islands as it continues toward the west coast. Panic ensues all up and down the western coast of North and South America. In an attempt to lessen its impact, scientists launch an underwater explosion that inadvertently makes the tsunami more powerful and focused on Los Angeles. Scientists rush to a solution while the military begins planning for the worst. Los Angeles begins emergency evacuation. Lives and loves are lost even as a brash young grad student comes up with a solution: start the mother of all earthquakes to counter the rushing torrent and raise the continental shelf off the coast of the United States.

I couldn't believe the reviews so I went to YouTube and watched this film -- or as much as I could stomach. Wow, what a waste of $500! The acting..... I don't have another word for it... was amateur hour, the story was LUDICROUS, the Special Effects were HILARIOUSLY BAD DIME STORE QUALITY, and the dialogue atrocious. Captain to daughter: "Karen, are the controls working?" (No, Captain, the whole movie is not working.)Nerdy guy to Captain: "Dr. Taylor, this is madness!" (Yes, it is!!)Girl at Tsunami Center, Honolulu: "May God have mercy on us all!" (Honey, may God have mercy on the Producers, Director, Writers, Cast and Crew.)I've seen "The Room" AND "The Disaster Artist," but now I have new respect for what used to be called the "worst film ever made."
CGI 0/10; Plot 0/10; Music Score 1/10; Plausibility 0/10; Acting 0/10; Overall Believablity 0/10;Honestly the only thing that this movie has going for it is one or two attractive actresses. I normally watch even bad movies to the end to give them a fair go. But watching this to the end was a struggle. Many of the characters act in a completely illogical way. For a disaster movie, there is a remarkable lack of people running and screaming. Isn't that the point of these movies? Shouldn't I be 'on the edge of my seat' the whole time? This movie lacks the terror that is the main point of disaster movies. And don't even get me started on the CGI(The worst I have ever seen.) I don't think they could have made a worse movie if they were trying. There are many plot holes and many of the questions it raises it makes no attempt to answer or explain whatsoever. The ending is fairly abrupt and barely ties off the movie at all. I would not recommend watching this movie
I made it up to 15 minutes to watch this and at first, I could only laugh, but after that, I started to get irritated and I couldn't watch it any further. I have seen more bad movies, but this one is really really really the worst one yet. All I can say: Don't bother! It's not worth you're time! I could make this kind of movie, with my mobile and my kids could play the actors. Yes!!! It is really that bad!!! I have to write 10 lines of text, so I can give my review, but I don't know how to fill these 10 lines. I can only repeat how bad this movie just is and don't spend any money on this. You can better rent ore buy an other movie, ore do something else with your hard earned money.
"Disaster Wars: Earthquake vs. Tsunami" was a disaster movie in every sense of the word, literally.The storyline was fairly generic for a movie of this genre. Mankind sets off a massive natural disaster that proves deadly and it is a race against time to find a way to stop this event before it lays destruction and waste to the world as we know it.Right... Nothing new there in the storyline department. Aside from it being very boring and uninteresting.The effects in the movie were abysmal, and I wonder how a special effects team in 2013 could look at the effects that they made for this movie and seriously go "yeah, this looks good. The audience will really buy into this." It was without a doubt the worst CGI effects I have ever witnessed in a movie, and believe you me I have seen many a bad movies in my time.As for the acting, well just watch the first 5-10 minutes, with the submersible scene, and the level of acting for the rest of the movie is pretty much determined. It seemed that no one on the cast list were buying into the storyline, and it showed blatantly on the screen, because the performances were not even half-hearted.There are many really bad movies about natural disasters, but "Disaster Wars: Earthquake vs. Tsunami" really is the icing on the cake of bad disaster movies.Not even 20 minutes into the movie, I was starting to drift to do other stuff and it was a losing battle to keep the attention span to the movie, because it was just so bad.I suffered through the 85 minutes of this movie so you don't have to. Heed my warning, and stay well away from "Disaster Wars: Earthquake vs. Tsunami".A generous 1 out of 10 stars...
