FASCINATING WASTE OF TIME

You know who usually gets screwed when it comes to making movies? The visual effects people. You go to see a disaster film like San Andreas and you are absolutely stunned at how realistic the special effects are. Buildings toppling, bridges collapsing, a city deluged by tidal waves, cars flying through the air. It's unbelievable how believable it is. The only problem is that the film itself sucks. It's nothing but endless cliches and hackneyed dialog spoken by B actors.  No character development, no memorable scenes or credible conflict. For all their brilliant models, breathtaking shots, split-second timing, and jaw dropping computer imagery what do these computer artists get: Dwayne Johnson and a cast of unknowns in an instantly forgettable film. I'm sure the special effects costs a fortune. Why can't they spend a little more money on a good script and charismatic actors?
