Goofs:

Plot holes: Sasha plans to refuel the Antonov on Hawaii, but since Hawaii is destroyed and they don't have enough fuel they have to do a water landing. Gordon mentions they lost the landing gear when they took off in Vegas so that won't be in the way. How, then, were they planning to land to refuel and take off again like originally planned?

Most Amazing, Suspenseful Disaster film!

I just caught a charity preview in Plano, TX. I have to say this is one of the most suspenseful, edge of your seat movies that I've seen in a long time. The special effects were phenomenal and made me jump out of my seat a multiple times. The first part of the movie did seem a little slow during the character development, which is to be expected. But, once the action starts, look out! The director did a great job, starting out with low intensity events and building up the intensity of the events of the move to the final climax. This is an awesome movie that has to be seen on the big screen for the full effect, highly recommended!!!
