Just watched it. Hit piece on oil companies and Republicans. The most ridiculous item was the Russian oil that was on its way to the US and diverted because China outbid us. LOL! So we couldn't counter? No, the ships did a u-turn and headed to China. Anyway, the movie was a POS.

I watched it too; absolute crap. I could have thrown together a better plot in an hour. And it was so far removed from how the government (and the public) would truly act in such a situation that it was practically a comedy.

(I was especially amused when oil prices tripled yet pump prices jumped somewhere around 425%.)

BTW, how come none of the scenes depicted in the PR photos from the first post in this thread actually were in the movie?

That is a bloody good question since with the exception of the photo of NYMEX floor traders, all the photos were taken from the promo website for 'Oil Storm'.
