Hurricane (2015) User Reviews

Well made and well worth the time to watch.

The footage is mesmerizing. And once you lock yourself into your chair, it is hard to walk away. Although basing itself upon a fictitious hurricane, the footage is of real storm surges and events. All mixed with a healthy blend of survivor accounts, first-hand experiences and the aftermath of the brutal onslaught of Mother Nature at her meanest. Well put together and nice to experience something different to big-budget, over-hyped Hollywood CGI nonsense. This is a story. And a documentary. Real tossed into a maelstrom with the unreal. Give it a go.

AMAZING !

This documentary blew me away. Very compelling watch. Tight succinct storyline and the footage is just fantastic. I cannot believe they faced down those hurricanes to get the shots. Fantastic underwater camera work too. Definitely recommend a watch. You will learn a lot more than you think.

Not much there

Billed (at least locally) as a true story, but it is a compilation of actual events. Long on 'cycle of life' platitudes, short on science or facts. Did not notice any 3D effects after the opening preview for another movie. It's not that there was anything bad or wrong with this movie, it's just that there really nothing in it to warrant 40 minutes.
