There's little point in critiquing the acting other than to say this isn't a production that will embellish anyone's list of credits. Nearly everyone here is a caricature trying to make the best of a miniseries that is all about the special effects.
-
Fans of this telefilm's predecessor... will probably enjoy this upped ante of a sequel, though it once again mixes spectacular effects with childish human melodrama.
-
Accidentally ridiculous. [4 Nov 2005, p.69]
-
It has moments of being so-bad-it's-good, which is to say it's at its best when it's a near-satire of the genre. But it drowns in redundant action scenes and sentimentality.
-
Even with network movie expectations at an all-time low, you might expect more from November's only broadcast miniseries than an overblown repeat. We've seen enough bad weather and bad movies to last a lifetime; why anyone would want to see the two combine again is beyond me.
-
As bad as the original was, the sequel is even worse.
-
"Category 7" blows and then some.
-
To sit through these four hours is to deserve compensation.
-
The storms in this production have more personality than the characters who chase, study and prepare for them.
-
Here's an early candidate for worst miniseries of the 21st Century.
-
The miniseries is about as enjoyable as toenail fungus or that sickening commercial for its cure.
