Die Sturmflut

First: It's known that animals do sense drastic changes and danger from weather. So where's the problem with that?

Second, we get so see all kinds of rubbush from Hollywood. Whatz wrong with this one?

It's an action-drama, not a documentary.

And for a based-on-true-events movie it sticks pretty close to reality (compared to Hollywood).

I think it had all I expect from a movie of that kind. It's a nice popcorn-and-beer movie for boring days and for a German TV-flick the CGI was extremely good.

So ppl, stop complaining. It's not that bad at all.

Have a look at the DU BIST DEUTSCHLAND campaign again and try to understand what it means. Germans just love to complain. It's a pain in the ass.

After having watched the first hour of this "completely underdeveloped script turned into a movie"-experience I can warn anyone against waisting time for such a cliché-ridden trip. Well, how do you set up your average "if mother nature unleashes her forces of destruction-epic? - You take a tragic love story; - the dog (or any other animal) that gets terribly nervous in face of the upcoming mayhem and ... - The persons that fail to realize and act upon the danger.

Some humour added, and you would have the perfect PERFECT STORM / Armageddon / DANTES PEAK / VOLCANO - spoof...

Avoid it whenever you can!

Considering that it's a German TV production from 2006, it's not bad at all.

An interesting human story packed in a dramatic countdown of the greatest nature catastrophe from Hamburg in 1962. Hundreds of people were killed. I was surprised how real the special effects were executed. Some too long paced scenes but filled with some good sentimental moments. All the actors made a good job. Watch it you have really nothing other to do. 6/10

Yes I have only seen part 1 so far. But I certainly hope that it will be getting better with the next part. But so far it does a good job on the Sci Fi but fails on a personal level so far.

I know I am supposed to care about who the bride will choose. Should be voting for the poor sailor who didn't have a chance because his letters were hidden. Should care for the people around them...but they make it tough to really care for them with a writing style that would make the daily soap proud. Problems is...I don't like the daily soaps..never did never will. So that all in all the first part was only interesting for the waves getting higher and the waiting for the big ones.

Frankly the Docu that they brought after-wards about the events was a lot more catching and showed how much cheesy the movie paled in comparison to RL
