EP1 Part 1 Nov 06, 2005

Across the world an unprecedented Category 6 storm descends. Violent winds, hurricane-level pressure and unprecedented "tornado alleys" develop across two continents. For years, scientists have been expounding theories - and warnings - of global-warming effects. It's disaster Code Yellow, as the "storm on steroids" is only just beginning to rend the earth.

EP2 Part 2 Nov 13, 2005

The warming effect is creating new regions of extreme weather, but something else is triggering it; something that when combined with record-breaking heat waves creates explosions in the sky. With time running out, discredited scientist Faith Clavell, teams up with storm chaser Tornado Tommy and Judith to discover the trigger.

Synopsis

It's tornadoes, hurricanes, electrical storms, and mass destruction as the effects of global warming brew into a super storm that threatens to rend the earth with an unprecedented power. Beautiful scientist Faith Clavell, storm chaser Tommy Tornado, and Judith Carr, the head of FEMA, can stop the inevitable from happening-if they have the courage to venture into the roiling blackness of the storm itself.

JessicaHieser As with the prequel: Category 6, Day of destruction, The actors in this each did an exceptional job. Great work by Shannon Doherty and her partner in tornado chasing, the iconic Randy Quaid. Very believable responses to the environmental crises. I love the layers of story line, which are quite complex, but rather than omitting them, they add to the depth of the film overall. Great science stats, and coverage of both social, political and economic issues arising from Global Warming. Particularly appreciated the addition of the religious coverage in this, as definitely there can be a fine line between environmental damage by man and what some believe is 'God's punishment'. Really great production on all fronts.
parcival-3 I like bad movies. In fact, I collect them. Some because the figures who created them are fascinating(e.g., Ed Wood). Some others because they're SO bad they're entertaining in themselves (e.g., "Robot Monster." I got this one as part of a cheap collection of disaster flicks. I can only summarize it based on I'm amazed any company put up the money for such a story; the bad guys all die--I especially like the scene where one of the kidnapped uses a shotgun to blow down the door of a room causing the kidnappers to get sucked into the sky by a tornado. He then enters the room and his hair doesn't even get mussed up.The good guys? The only ones who die are heroes, e.g., Tom Skerrit's character, a colonel whose SR71 gets ripped apart.(The plane, by the way, doesn't do what the movie suggests that it does).This flick might not be bad for a 6 year old. After that, it's just inane.
docscholl But that isn't saying much. Please see my review for "Category 6" for further comments.I half expected to see Randy Quaid's character come back to life, due to plot predictability. But I did NOT see it coming when he and Shannen Doherty's character kissed. BIG yuck factor!The Lindy Booth character was poorly scripted and acted as the cheesy journalist assigned to write obits then uncovers the end-of-days plot at a mega church.Good to see Tom Skerritt back on the screen, even if it was a campy redo of his "Top Gun" character.I've not seen Category 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5. But based on the amount of re-edited scenes and various cameos, I suspect the makers of these movies were trying to accomplish what their message was: save energy by recycling. They certainly recycled enough scenes and actors in parts 6 & 7!Oy!
disdressed12 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
