Summary: Category 6: Day of Destruction
Comment: Category 6: Day of Destruction is a 2004 TV movie about a series of 'super storms' that strike parts of the US (and Canada).
The movie stars a lot of Hollywood and Canadian stars: Brian Dennehy plays the head of a group of storm experts who (with the help of a young, female analyst), try to prevent the storms from hitting various US states; a storm preventer (Thomas Gibson), who is having an affair with a woman while his marriage and family are put on the backburner; a 'storm chaser' (Randy Quaid) who gives foreign tourists a tour of the storms; the reporters' sister who is about to give birth while her fiancee is trying to make sure they're getting out of the storms alive; and a woman who is working for the DOJ (Dianne Weist), who is threatening a corrupt power company from blacking out American homes so that they can cut costs and save money.
Director Dick Lowry ("The Gambler series with Kenny Rogers") does an excellent job, and the acting is good.
The CGI effects are great for a made for TV movie and it recommended family viewing for people who like disaster movies.
Category 6: Day of Destruction gets four stars and is worth the price for three hours of quality viewing.

Summary: Outstanding Movie
Comment: This movie is outstanding. Must see for anyone that enjoys watching storm type movies. I would not recommend for younger audiences. In my opinion it would be to disturbing for younger people. I believe in global warming and if you look around and do research on it, it is real. If anything like this movie ever happens to us God bless the United States. I can also recommend Catagory 7.

Summary: Nice BUT--I have #1 complaint
Comment: Alright, I don't usaully review stuff like this but in this case, I REALLY had to. The movie was great, although not all the CGI was spot on. But that's not my complaint. My complaint is that they are calling that "Tommy Tornado" a REAL storm chaser....
Now despite what is seen in the Movie "Twister" that's NOT how REAL storm chaser act!!
First of all when in comes to professional Storm Chasers, SAFETY is ALWAYS first!!! He took WAT to many risks. You NEVER let your guard down and you NEVER get that close unless you are sure your location is secure.
Anyways, that's what I wanted to mention.
No--I am not downing the movie or anything. I really liked the movie....it was just that false Storm Chaser was incredibly insulting to those of us who are actually a part of the official Storm Chaser, and Spotter Networks.
That's all.
But it's still a great movie. I will watch it again, despite the annoying chaser, the effects were neat. I LOVED the opening scene of the tornadoes destroying Las Vegas--
--Kat-Jew --Kansas Storm Spotter
