Firstly, start by ignoring any comparisons people may draw to "The Day After Tomorrow". This film is nothing like that. This is a film set in the UK and it deals with an actual possible event. The film is set in London and deals with what would happen if a massive tidal wave flooded central London. Robert Carlysle is an ... Read the complete review

This was recently shown on TV as a three part drama and was amazing to watch, with some cracking actors in here it tells the story of what would happen if sea levels continued to rise and how a flood would breach the Thames Barrier and have catastrophic events for the UK.

Flood is a British movie that is aptly described by the genre it is aiming to be a success in... a disaster movie! It really is an out and out catastrophe on every possible front. It managed a limited, one-week cinema release, in one cinema in London, mainly due to the floods striking England at the time. That, even with perfect ... Read the complete review

As a massive storm front hits the North East coast of Scotland, the British government finds itself unable to offer any appropriate response. Without any real warning from the Met Office, dozens of lives are lost and all that everyone can do is hope that the storm moves out to sea as the projections suggest. In London, preparations are ...
