Review of The Hurricane Heist (2018) by Giorgio G — 15 Jul 2018
Honestly I can forgive a lot of stupid stuff in movies, and I love a good disaster flick, but COME ON. The CGI was horrible, looks like they outsourced it to a high school graphics class. Maggie Grace is actually great in her part but the script is terrrible.
But the most egregious part of this movie, as a Southerner, was the depiction of this fake place called "Gulfport, Alabama." They reference a real hurricane Andrew and make up a fake city. There is a Gulfport, MS and a Gulf Shores, AL.
The over the top southern accent combined with the trucks rolling through a mountainous landscape at the end as the Voldemort storm wall closes in--heads up since obviously no one in this movie has ever been to the Gulf Coast--there aren't any mountains.
It's like making up a fake city on the west coast called Palm Angeles and adding marshes and live oaks. Good grief.
