I wouldn't recommend it, unless you are a fan of any of the actors or if you can it at a riduculously low price. Although such a price is probably what it's worth. The movie has some good sound and decent effects. That's about it But the cast seems to be going through the motions. Can't say too much for the script either. Maybe you should try renting it first.

I seem to be the lonely voice so far that will admit to liking this film. The DVD sadly lacks any extras, though. I checked out the website for the film when it came out, and the story about its filming was fascinating! It would have been nice to see a "making of" featurette. Anyway, I think it's a decent transfer with one of the year's best music scores, too.

I also really liked the film. It's got great action sequences and special effects and, for an action movie, the acting is pretty good. Although it's no Speed or Die Hard, I would say it's one of the better action movies in the last few years. Fun, thrilling and not so over-the-top as Armageddon or ID4 where you're just saying "Yeah, right" the whole time.
I have it on DVD and the quality of the picture and sound is excellent. No extras, as mentioned above, but you almost have to freeze frame some of the shots to appreciate how good the cinematography on this movie is. Whatever you do, don't see this movie in pan n scan format--the filmmakers frame every shot beautifully.
First time I saw it at a sneak preview over 2 years ago, it was called "The Flood" and I knew right then I was going to buy the DVD of it. Great purchase.
