'''''Hard Rain''''' is a 1998 American action film directed by Mikael Salomon starring [[Christian Slater]] and [[Morgan Freeman]]. The small town of Huntingburg is caught in monsoon-like rains. Even the dam threatens to burst and wash the town off the map. The town has now become a ghost town with very few people left. Now, of all times, the armored truck with all the cash in the area gets stuck there. The driver Tom and his uncle Charlie ask for help, but only the aging crook Jim and his troop come. Jim wants to take advantage of the chaotic situation to improve his economic situation. He plans to rob the money transport and take the contents for himself.
