Hah, I just watched that movie on TV a day or two ago....
Well....IF something like that would actually happen I don't think I would want to be on any of those ships...I mean, what would the world be like after it happening.....
What a total crap movie by the way SO predictable from the start. The only thing that surprised me was that I expected them to be spaceships (like most people I guess), which would have made it even more unlikely because we simply cannot build space ships like that at this moment.
The way the family respond to see their entire city crumble up why they just escape by car and plane is totally unbelievable. I mean, a normal person would completely freak out, but the only emotion we see is that the youngest child (a girl of course) is crying a bit....mmmm....
Another thing is that the cell-phones keep working all the time everywhere....pretty unlikely with all the base stations having gone under...
Oh well, it's just another disaster movie.
