Such a frustrating disappointment

Good concept, poorly executed.

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

This may be the worst "sky is falling" flick I have ever seen. It is a blatant copy of any number of previous such disaster films, minus the excitement and drama and interest. Michael Biehn, not exactly the most exciting actor who ever lived, heads all non-star cast as the world prepares for collision with an asteroid. As goofy as Armageddon was, I'd watch that 100 times over this low-brow pablum. At least hambone lead Bruce Willis dies at the end. Heck, I'd even watch that 1974 "world is coming to an end" craptacular EARTHQUAKE with Charlton Heston and Ava Gardner 100 times over this. I just love it when the aged Heston and Gardner get all muddy.

I worse film I ever saw. FEMA to the rescue maybe too many Naw Leans residents saw this film. FEMA by no means has any action heroes.Everything about he film is bogus.Emergency workers don't behave as shown Everyone would have known the asteroid would have splinted. Why did the grand father leave the house with 2 small fires going.There was food and water at house.Its a waste of time. Don't waste your time. Watching this film is a waste of time Clinton Hollywood feel good.If you want to see a silly very silly 90's movie watch this and laugh.Believe it or not the Kid is named Eliott.

I can't believe all these negative comments about this movie! I love it! Super special effects, nice acting.Annabella Sciorra & Michael Biehn were great.Of course, the laser would be impossible, but it was to make the movie more dramatic.The Dallas scene where the city is "meteored" off the face of the Earth was great as well.The ending where Elliot is trapped in the crater was very suspenseful.Having asteroids hit Dallas & Kansas City is a better choice than New York or Los Angeles. I would have preferred Salt Lake City to Dallas, but still nice to see fresh blood in this movie.There are no dams in Kansas City, but they did it to make it more dramatic, as well. Plus, their downtown doesn't look like that, but who cares?Super movie! 10 out of 10!

One of the cheapist TV movies ever.The plot is virtually nothing to do with an Asteroid - might as well be an episode of a soap opera thrown in with abit of thrown about debris of a small grenade going off in a kebab shop.Script is appalling - lines likeIf it's any comfort, your not alone -(yeah - supposedly - the crate is going to be around 100K)the big asteroid has just hit - following comment from a news presenter - "a small impact in an apartment block in cologne" - do Americans know where Cologne is??the fireman has to go back to work to help the incoming Asteroid - the wife says - "is it just about the job or the thrills"2 big men huging - "We'll get through it buddy, we'll get through it"the fireman's wife comes up from the basement after the major blast and her comments on seeing her place are: "o my god, get me a broom and rubbish bag" - I think ??Continuity errors: - they get blasted by water from a broken dam on a bridge but next minute, the main male character was dry, clean clothes, etc, he looks peachywhen they come up from the basement after being torched, they all have breath that show that the site in is minus degrees One of the worst movies I have 2/3 watched - am writing this while the last 1/3 is playing.to much to mention - this movie must have been made as a spoof
