The script by Janet Scott Batchler, Lee Batchler and Michael Robert Johnson, is crisp and focused. The tension is carefully and precisely mounted to construct the doomsday effect. Though the event is predictable, the look and feel of Glen MacPherson's visuals in 3D is enchanting. They beautifully merge with computer generated special effects of the volcanic eruption, the tsunami and the submerging of the land.

What also makes this film remarkable, is that Anderson has managed to cut bird's-eye view wide-angle lens shots with tight close-ups with equal ease, thereby making the action-packed portions seems razor sharp and participatory.

The film is worth a watch for being a grand visual spectacle.
