4.0 out of 5 stars DEVASTATING!!, 12 Aug 2001

By	J. Harrison "70's Rule" (Dana Point, Ca. USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Even for a 70's era disaster flick, the special effects for the time are awesome, the quake looking rather real!! Actually, the special effects even beat out some of today's "disasters". Some of today's computer effects are just unreal in nature and don't compare with the originality of the effects from the 70's disaster movies. The 70's methods may be dated, but are sure REALISTIC!

On the richter scale, this film measures an 8.0

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the greatest disaster movies ever made!, 14 Aug 2008

By	FAMOUS NAME (UNITED KINGDOM) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

Certainly one of the greatest disaster movies ever made, and one of the biggest movies of the 70s. Stars Lorne Greene, Charlton Heston, George Kennedy and Ava Gardner. A story of ordinary life with everyday problems that swiftly melt into insignificance when a massive earthquake strikes and threatens the survival of a large city!

This has some great special effects for its day, and some interesting stories woven into the disaster. Also stars a young Victoria Principal (Dallas)

Great movie!

4.0 out of 5 stars Mono, 10 Aug 2007

By	Darren Fuge "Darren Fuge" (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Earthquake [DVD] [1974] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)

EARTHQUAKE is a great film but the only thing that spoils the DVD release on Region 1 and Region 2 and probably other Regions, it's always in Mono. The Region 1 laser disc version was in 5.1 Stereo sound and I can't understand why the sound was downgraded to Mono. This happened when THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE first came out on DVD, it was Mono and the laser disc version was THX Stereo. Luckily Fox re-released THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE as a two-disc set and it was upgraded to the 5.1 Stereo sound. I hope Universal re-release EARTHQUAKE.
