As expected with most disaster flicks, this film was typically all spectacle and barely any substance. Or did any hold it aloft after all?

After 28 years, this followup to the 1996 disaster classic emerged. I felt it. I chased it. It didn't stun or suck. It sucked me in instead.

2021, the year that followed one of the worst years in recent memory. Had things gotten better since then? I honestly don't know...
