Australian thriller that seems to have been made for TV. Our star, the make-up-drowning, wig-wearing, daughter-neglecting Amanda Foster (B-movie queen Traci Lords) sets out to stop a spy who was actually working for that dude on the strip club who looked like Adam Alsing, who is actually working for the bald Russian fellow, uh, add to that an earthquake that destroys most of Los Angeles and you have yourself this cringe-worthy turkey. How did this get released into theaters?
Aside from a few sex scenes there is nothing entertaining about this flick. The mother-daughter relationship is clichéd and screams "look! character development!" to the point of being silly. The characters are all flat and stereotyped, and the special effects blow. Terminator 2 had better effects than this, and it was made nine years earlier. Skyscrapers that lean onto each other?? Give me a break!
Worth a couple of laughs, especially during the random old-man-with-a-toy-parrot-in-an-elevator scene (wtf?), and whenever that horrible kid actor tries to show pain. The ending is too lame for words and should leave any serious filmmaker flabbergasted (God, I love that adjective).
Worth your time if you like bad movies.
PS. It is my policy to have a bad pun in every review, so here you go: This movie left me shaking with anger. AHHAHHHAHAHAHAHAH!! Sorry.(r#12)
