awesome authentic movie from norway - The Quake review by jm
I think the Europeans do these movies so much better with real believable characters with a great build up to the earthquake itself.
its subtitled but don't let that put you off this awesome movie from Norway.

Terrific edge-of-seat disaster thriller - The Quake review by Alphaville
The problem with most disaster movies is you know what’s coming but still have to sit through screeds of character development to reach the action. Here, however, the build-up is believable and engaging, more of a detective story.
It’s a kinda-sequel to The Wave (also excellent), with the action shifting from Norway’s fjord country to Oslo. Our hero geologist, now a broken man estranged from the family he saved from the wave, now has to save them again as he begins to find evidence of what’s coming next. His efforts in a city of collapsing buildings really ramps up the tension in some terrific scenes of peril.
