On the whole this is a good show with some interesting ideas. SuperStorm came to our screens in the Uk over the last three weeks and despite reservations with the plot and the fact that this has been done before in Hollywood Blockbusters, I was kind of looking forward to seeing it. I wasn't disappointed. taken off the wake of Hurricane Katrina, the mini series, takes us into the world of weather manipulation. Something that a few years ago would have been unheard of, is now a reality and becoming less like science fiction every day. The storyline has some interesting ideas and dilemmas. If only we could change the course of a storm we could save the lives of thousands of people every year. However Mother nature has proved many times before that she isn't one to be tampered with or tamed and with discovery, comes great risk and even possible failure and tragedy.
I won't tell you the plot, as you will have to see it yourself to understand, but to sum up, SuperStorm poses us questions and offers answers. With fantastic special effects and a strong cast and funding from both sides of the Atlantic under the banner of the BBC, SuperStorm is a must see in my book.
Watch it as a piece of fiction, but ask yourself the question.....what if.
Enjoy.
