just watch it!

The movie is surprisingly subdued in its pacing, its characterizations, and its go-for-broke sensibilities.

This movie was not suspenseful or particularly interesting. The CGI was typically unnatural and very fake looking, there were a lot of failures to keep consistent with some of the supposedly scientific phenomenon, and it was a rather see-through plot with no surprises. The only saving grace about this movie was the actors were actually good. I think a lot more could have been done with this movie if it had had a better budget. It was almost like watching one of those semi-interesting science movies they show you in high school. In fact, I'm pretty sure most of those high school science movies had better graphics. Worth watching once if you are bored and have alcohol. Not something you'd turn off half way through out of sheer boredom, but not something I would watch again and/or recommend to others.

I say this as somebody who dislikes a vast majority of SyFy's movies. Doomsday Prophecy actually did seem interesting in its idea, but I also approached it in trepidation in fear that it would be another Titanic II, Quantum Apocalypse, Alien vs. Hunter, Almighty Thor or 2010: Moby Dick. In my opinion though, although it is far from perfect or even brilliant, Doomsday Prophecy is one of their more tolerable efforts.There is some cheesy dialogue, some of the supporting characters could have been better developed and some of the effects like with the ground cracking are rather cheap. The story is also uneven for me. The film does start off promisingly and for a while unlike some SyFy movies actually feels as though there is a story and an original one at that plus it is paced reasonably, but it does meander with a silly subplot involving some shady characters and few scenes that feel like filler rather than serving purpose to the story and an ending that feels rather rushed and abrupt.On the other hand, the scenery is quite good and the editing and photography are an improvement over most SyFy efforts, not looking as slipshod as something like Titanic II, Mega Piranha or Dinocroc vs Supergator. The music is adequate even if nothing stands out as such and the sound is more authentic than some of the bizarre or misplaced sound effects I've heard in past SyFy movies. While there are some underdeveloped support characters, the leads are somewhat likable especially the protagonist. The cameos are decent and AJ Buckley is solid, but the best thing about Doomsday Prophecy is easily Jewel Staite, she looks very natural and gives her character a lot of charm and wide-eyed innocence.All in all, not bad, not good, just a tolerable enough if not exceptional in any shape or form to spend a couple of hours or so with. 5/10 Bethany Cox

After reading a comment on here about this movie being poor, I almost didn't watch this movie but out of boredom I thought how bad can it be. Well, I was pleasantly surprised. First up, the acting was great and there were quite a few cameo appearances early in the movie. Cameo as most of them were all killed off in massive disasters. The rest of the acting was good and by well known TV grade actors and applause to a job well done for the two lead actors who kept me rivited right to the end. The special effects which I was expecting to be crappy were actually quite reasonable and spot on for what one expects from a made for TV movie. All up I was disappointed when the movie ended because I was enjoying it so much. This is definitely a movie to add to your watch list. Now comes the spoilers: The movie is about the earth's up coming demise in 2012 when the earth reaches galactic allignment. AT this time a rogue dark star enters the solar system and the gravitational pull from this causes massive plate shifts resulting in earth quakes and the destruction of cities. Some of the destruction is shown in some fairly reasonable special effects whilst others is just talked about on the radio but then again why would you show Canada being destroyed when the story is elsewhere ? There is a gun battle and a chase spanning two days as a rogue government agent tries obtrain an ancient device our lead actors managed to get just in the nick of time. I wont tell you more because it will ruin a perfectly good story. Enjoy.

Here again, I was looking forward tonight to watching a new disaster movie and with hopefully awesome special effects as in the movie 2012. Instead of spending money creating awesome special effects, the film makers chose instead to report various cities and countries' destruction via TV and radio special news reports. When NYC was destroyed, the few seconds of destruction were shown in a window's reflection! What a joke! The film makers instead used up the movie's time with idiotic and nothing but annoying car chases and shoot-outs, which were totally unnessary to the story. You can view better special effects by watching The Weather Channel's "It Could Happen Tomorrow"! If I had known, I wouldn't have wasted my time and I advise you not to waste your time with this stinker either!
