Looks like a Disney ride to me. I mean really - what are the chances that the John Cusak could really drive a limo like that... and that a limo wouldn't get flat tires when jumping up the curb.

And, I know they collapse time a bit; but it looks like they were in Hollywood or at best WHo, and one couldn't get to Santa Monica Airport in 5-10 minutes even on surface streets with no traffic or signals... and that earthquake was going at least 30-40 miles per hour.

And the flying sequences are just stupid.

I mean; when you take off in an airplane; you pull up and climb to a few thousand feet pretty quickly. And you wouldn't fly right back downtown or to Westwood, or West Hollywood - unless of course, you're being scripted by some dorky writer in some fake ass action movie.

Looks dumb. John Cusak should stick to romantic comedies with Diane Lane.


I'm really disappointed. I was excited to see this one until this preview came out. Uhg, looks like complete garbage.
