Someone bored and with gullible imagination will spill cold drink in the popcorn and lack jawed enjoy seeing the city of Seattle try to scurry to safety. Well, it came from the sky. An unidentified object is tracked over the state of Washington and lands in Puget Sound. A dark, murky cloud spreads in the water and soon wetsuits rise to the surface without human life to be found. The Seattle sky starts turning black as officials inspect the watery debris. Lt. Commander Emma Peterson(Ona Grauer)is assigned to try to identify the mysterious threat and arrange security for the city. Her fiancé, scientist Tom Reynolds(Esai Morales), is unable to sit still and ignore what is going on, so he sends their two teens(Jared Abrahamson and Mackenzie Porter) home, unknowingly putting them right in the path of the developing superstorm. The city is in chaos and somehow we are to believe this family will figure out together how to stop this drastic calamity before it grows into something that could actually cause world alarm. We see almost 200 scenes of the Space Needle, Seattle's iconic identify and computer generated destruction to the city. The movie is not even filmed in Seattle, but Vancouver. Acting is more like going through the motions and its a shame the talents of Morales and Grauer go wasted. Also in the cast: Michelle Harrison, Jay Brazeau and Martin Cummins.
