Maximum Velocity

You know that big red dot on Jupiter.  It is a hurricane.  A massive hurricane that has been roaming around for a long time.  And when a meteor comes too close to the Earth, it helps stir up a super storm that could possibly roam the waters of the Earth just like that storm.  Good thing we have this four billion dollar plane to help stop it.

Yet another weather changer movie.  This one is one of the worst yet.  Dr. Timothy Briggs was on a top secret weather project that claimed the life of his wife four years ago.  Since then, he has laid low at begun teaching at a community college.  But with the meteor skirting the atmosphere, it has drummed up a super storm that could annihilate the east coast of the United States.  The general who removed him from the project four years ago needs him again.

I will be brief, ... the new plane goes in the air and a lot of far fetched things happen and the crisis is averted.  This movie takes unbelievable and takes it to another level.  From refueling in the eyewall of the strongest storm in recorded history to dragging the hurricane towards cooler waters to help weaken it.

The villian here is a hurricane.  There are a few scenes with people evacuating, most of them running.  It's rather funny.  But no real gore or anything to get excited about.  One man gets lit on fire.  That's about it.  Most of the movie is either seizure cam from the bouncing around in the digital airplane or the digital airplane.

Not worth the effort to see this one.  Even with a Medusa's Face alumni from Copperhead.

I give this movie 0 out of 5 motorcycle wind suits.
