Title: Bad...
Review: ..mind-blowingly, cringingly, staggeringly bad. In fact, so bad that it's almost classically bad and therefore worth watching. Every maudlin cliché beloved of American cinema (estranged husband-wife, boy meets girl, in the midst of total catastrophe) is marshalled and sent into battle. George Gershwin's immortal lines"In time, the Rockies may crumbleGibraltar may tumbleThey're only made of clayBut our love is here to stay."essentially sum up the film, except you get to see something similar to the first two lines happen in real time.Between the clichés and the scientific/technological impossibilities (neutrinos changing into different types of neutrinos???) are the special effects, and these are (just) sufficient justification for watching this appalling turkey, for they are indeed spectacular.What's especially amusing is that the Chinese get the big manufacturing job - is there a moral there somewhere?
