This was okay to see for a few gory scenes but that's about it. It's supposed to be a man vs. nature story but it turned out to be half party and half survival (mostly running away from escape convicts). Nothing wrong with both but I was wanting more about the earthquake and the tsunami approaching. This was about an American guy who is vacationing in Chile. By the way, Chile looks very beautiful, at least in the first half. Must visit there one of these days. Anyways, this American is partying with some Chileans and they meet up with these other girls. They convinced the girls to stay another day in order to visit more of the countryside. During a big club scene, an earthquake erupts. Lots of insanity. Chaos. Lots of gore. The streets are filled with madness and our survival story begins. There's a prison nearby that gets damaged and prisoners escape and cause more damage. It's survival all the way until the end. Almost everyone gets killed here. There are a few stupid scenes but they need to be stupid in order for the horror element to work. For example, Eli Roth's character is trapped under a piece of concrete. He is badly hurt. The escape prisoners torture him in order to find out where the girls are at. No matter what, you're going to get killed. So, why tell them a few minutes later? I know, he was trying to save himself because he has a daughter. And why did the prisoners did not believe him at first? I would believe a near dying man, but then again, I'm not a cold blooded gangster.
Overall, nothing to make a great big fuzz about. I wouldn't recommend this movie.
So, at your own risk if you're interested.
