Living in California (as I do) adds a little more meaning to this disaster flick, but even if you don’t live in the land of the shakes – you’ll enjoy the excellent special effects and last minute saves that bring home a great sense of mayhem and destruction. The cast (Dwayne Johnson, Paul Giamatti, and a sizzling hot entourage of Carla Gugino, Alexandra Daddario and Archie Panjabi (I mean, who wouldn’t go to extgremes to save them)? Are super solid.
