After several weeks of heavy rainfall, the dam above Brownsville is ready to burst. But the town's mayor refuses to open its gates - paving the way for disaster.

Entertaining made for TV Irwin Allen disaster movie with a good cast including Barbara Hershey, Robert Culp, and Martin Milner who starred in one of my favorite shows Adam-12 which is definitely why I enjoyed this so much. Follows the standard disaster formula of personal lives and setting up the potential disaster before it happens in the 3rd act.

It was better than I expected it to be, I gave it a 5 which is pretty good for this genre.

I'd rather watch something w/ lots of drama & build-up like Miss Airport :kudrowsip:
