Passable made to TV movie aspires to tell

Passable made to TV movie aspires to tell a Michael Crichton type of story that educates and entertains the audience at the same time. The story is essentially in the classic disaster film mold (ALA "Earthquake" or "The Towering Inferno") featuring a varied cast of characters in various settings and roles in dealing with the titular category 6 storm. The main characters are energy grid executive Thomas Gibson and hungry young reporter Nancy "The Fact of Life" McKeon. There's also environmentalist congresswoman Dianne Wiest, national weather service head Brian Dennehy and then there's comic relief tornado chaser Randy Quaid. There really has never was been a great disaster film, but merely a number of entertaining ones. No one watches these movies for the characters or story. The only reason to really watch one is for the death and destruction and for a TV movie, this one does a decent enough of job, though it does get overly preachy in it's attempts at Michael Crichton-like educating, trying to cover everything from environmental abuses, global warming, nuclear energy, our aging power grid, hacking, sexism and corporate price rigging of energy prices to name a few. Stick with "Airport 77" (that's the one where they're on the bottom of the ocean, right?) or even "Hard Rain" (which actually told a crime story during a disaster instead of just focusing on the distruction) over this one. And one note to "Lost" fans. Oceanic Airlines makes an appearance in this film, though Oceanic has appeared in a number of films before "Lost" ever aired. It's a popular fake airline in movies because they can reuse footage. This film reused footage from "Executive Decision."

Bad Science and stupid storyline are not hallmarks

Bad Science and stupid storyline are not hallmarks of a good movie. The technical details were written by a fourth grade science class. Read a book instead.
