The effects are good, but the plot is too weak

If you just look at the special effects, it's not too much to give five stars. It's too powerful, too shocking, and too realistic. Sitting in the theater and watching the waves crashing over the mountains, the volcanic ash is flying all over the sky, the earth is splitting quickly, and the mountains are instantly razed to the ground, and there is always a feeling of suffocation. So real!
But that's probably the only good thing about the film. The plot is too much, and there are too many flaws. Although the protagonist's family had a big reunion at the end, although the love was a success, although the film uncharacteristically adopted an attitude of praise and praise for China, so that the Radio and Television Bureau did not wave scissors when it was introduced, although Lao Mei did not He mercilessly killed his own president. Although the whole film expresses a lot of humanistic views on the moral high ground, none of this can hide the absurdity of the plot and the far-fetched plot. The protagonist's escape was too bizarre, the doctor's death was too strange, the beautiful woman drowned too unreasonably, the two little fat kids escaped too dramatically, the handsome guy fell too unreasonably, and the final happy ending came too abruptly.
However, for commercial films, the requirements should not be too high. People have smashed so many beautiful knives. Let’s make do with Tu Yile. Anyway, this film is still worth going to the theater to watch, hehe.

    Great gimmick, the film is so bad. Why didn't it show? There is a clear version on the eDonkey

    Although I only give full marks to films that are classic and memorable. But is the connotation of this scene not enough? Like the movie said: If today is the end of the world, what will our legacy be? Maybe such a movie is enough to record our last bits and pieces, to the announcer Salute, thank you for your first broadcast, salute to the master, thank you for your insights for ringing the last bell for mankind, and for the harmony and unity of humanity
