Well, this one really has to be seen to be believed.  Probably 1 of the very worst theatrical, (semi) big budget films I've ever seen.

Directed by Rob Cohen, who has had much success, but who has also been responsible for some utter failures...this falls into the latter category and is an absolute embarrassment, unless you're talking about the hilarity of something so fucking bad, it's enjoyable.

We've got an estimated budget of $35 to $45 Million and a pathetic BO of just over $6 Million.

Everything about this movie, and I mean fucking everything, is just downright terrible.

The acting is laughable.  The dialogue and writing is actually comical, but not intentionally.  The plot/story/actions/reactions all seem to be from a young teenager who doesn't know how anything works in the real world.  The FX are Sharnado bad.

All in all, as this played out, I was in total awe of the level of terribleness.  I'd love to throw out various plot points and the like that are laugh out loud terrible, but it may be more fun if you just watch with a bottle of Jager and a bong next to you, so you don't see them coming.  Sadly, I was stone cold sober, but still had quite a hoot.

Grade - F

Hurricane Heist will be remembered by the end of the year.
In several Worst 10 lists of the year.
They might even pick up a razzie.
