I absolutely hate the shaky as hell camera, would have been better if they did more of a first person type through somebodies eyes and didn't make it SOOO shaky.
Acting doesn't get much worse than this... thought for sure I was watching a made for TV sci-fi movie with big budget special effects. It would have been an UPGRADE to bring in some known D-listers because the actors in this were like way below whatever class Kathie Griffin is putting herself in.
Like CDSmith said its not something you'll be watching more than 2 times TOPS so don't buy it.

I agree with everything except the acting part. I think it was actually well-acted, and the fact they used unkowns coupled with the fact that it was basically written as reality, that this tape from someone's hand-held vidcam is the only account the military has of what happened struck me as, well, interesting.
If something like that ever actually did happen (any type of bad disaster really), people actually do talk and act like that. They did a good job of it for that reason. If you think people don't say "oh my god" and yell each other's names 10 times over during such a crisis you haven't been in a crisis. People do, act, and say all sorts of stupid shit. "Did you SEE that? OMG did you SEE that??"... lol, but to actually ACT in that way purposefully... no question they did a good job.
Having known actors would have detracted from it.
