I would rather watch mold grow in a petri dish.
Physics and common sense aside, this movie just plain sucks. It is boring, mediocre on all levels, and hard to follow. I think it's hard to follow because it's just so boring. First there's a "mega fault" opening up over half the country (although not big enough to do anything cool like swallow a whole city), and eventually they freeze it. Then suddenly it bubbles with lava. Whatever.
The actors are L-A-M-E. The CGI is even worse. There's one scene near the beginning where a car falls into a sinkhole, but you see the concrete through the car. It's just dreadful.
And it may not be common knowledge, but you can't just flip a switch and turn on a helicopter like you do a car. They do that a lot in this movie... just turn it on and take off in a matter of seconds. Not possible in real life.
I could go on and on about the errors of this movie, but it's SyFy, so why bother? As usual, don't waste your time. There is no cool monster, no comic relief, no special effects worth seeing, nada. There is absolutely nothing redeemable about this flick whatsoever. There is not one moment where you say, "Yeah, the movie sucks overall, but that one part is awesome!" Nothing. Not even "so bad it's good"... it's just ALL BAD.
