I'll try and keep this short. The acting is really bad and the script is weak. I'm surprised that the celebrities they had playing the lead roles in this film actually agreed to do it; knowing that upon it's release it would be almost certain "career suicide" for them. It's almost like a group of nerdy high school students shot the whole film in a weekend and made the script up as they went a long. Unbelievable story lines, shallow and predictable characters, weak script, cheesy special effects, and the entire film appears to have been shot with a Sony Handicam with a cheap pair of sunglasses placed over the lens to give contrast in light levels. Watching this motion picture was like watching a train wreck. I really feel embarrassed for anyone who had a hand in its creation and distribution. My idea of hell would be the Devil forced us to watch this movie over and over again. I gave it a 1 only because negative numbers aren't possible.

this movie is the sequel to Category 6:Day of Destruction.like category 6,this one deals with a series of catastrophic storm systems, many converging together at one time,creating a series of super storms around the globe.however,this time an unprecedented category 7 is imminent over Washington,D.C which will leave the city in ruins,killing thousands of people.the government and the disaster agencies must find a way to avert disaster.there is also another,non weather related element to deal with,which adds another dimension.will disaster be averted?you will have to watch the movie to find out.there is obviously a ton of action,as in the original.the cgi is quite good for a made for TV movie.the acting however,did not seem as convincing this time around.There are a few strictly minor league (b movie or lower quality)actors/actresses in this movie.also,this movie is much more preachy than the first.at times, it is almost a sermon on pollution and global warming.that put me off a fair bit.the movie is much faster paced than Category 6,so it does movie quicker.the big problem however,is,how do you make the movie more intense than the last one?i don't think you can.the movie is certainly louder,but visually,it had been already been done In the original.and although the movie had some tense moments,i wouldn't call it thrilling,and it wasn't really a fun experience.overall, i'd have to give this movie 6/10

I've seen this movie last night and I find it completely waste of time. The story flow is bad. The common sense is bad (e.g. the twister pull most of the building including cars up to the sky easily but as to the human... it take it takes a long long time). And to make it worst, why the hell do the terrorist want to kidnapped those people in a very dangerous situation like this??? Even if they succeeded, maybe all their others relatives might be dead by now (hello..we are talking about category 7 here) so.. who will save them poor people? The government? well, we all can see that the government themselves are in big trouble.AND the worst part is the ending! All it says is "We are talking about category 7" and the movie ends. This is just totally wrong!

For years movie studios have pushed out variations of blockbuster movies, For example, "Twister" hit the big screen and "Night of the Twisters" hit the family channel and "Tornado" hit (can't remember which channel) but I have to say that BOTH the cheaper produced movies far outweighed the so called block buster that was twister.As seen with the 3 war of the worlds movies released in the same year as each other, I feel the asylum productions release was a far better variation than the Spielberg release. It's the same as "Asteroids" far outweighed "Armageddon" and "deep impact" as well.It seams cheaper cast and cheaper budget provides for more "story" rather than fx, Which is generally a good start, less cgi and more plot, gets the point across, You can sell a movie with a few pretty faces and pack it with fx But it'll always lack a good plot.Category 7, was as good as Category 6 And their BOTH a Wake up call for are small insignificant little world Which where destroying slowly but surly. Well worth a watch, if you wish to see how the world's weather will evolve
Which it already is : /Looking at previous comments I can but wonder about the future of our fair planet, I'm far from a Greenpeace or recycling fanatic But I can see how the worlds changing (very fast to) It's a shame others are blind to the environmental changes around us, From "The day After Tomorrow" and "Category 7" And everything on the current weather & news channels I can but wonder if the world is just blind or has gone insane.People don't worry about floods nor what comes with it, Australia is feared for spiders, but as the world heats up
. They'll survive in your country, meaning boxes of fruit clearing customs will have a surprise inside (that's still alive due to the climate) and when the floods & heat come, piranha can swim pretty far, and will be able to live in such a climate, as for sharks : / lol when the ice caps melt (which they are) you'd be surprised what they'll bring. If these types of movies are not a wake up call, I don't no what is : /This movie isn't great but it does show you something, And it clearly makes its point, those who don't see it, need a wake up call....
