Terrifying

Rating: 7/10 (3 May 2016)

Beware: Major spoilers ahead!
I saw this movie when I was around 12 or 13 years old. I clearly couldn't handle it. It is still haunting me 5 years later. Before I watched this movie, I never really thought about the end of the world. This movie changed it forever. I was super scared after watching it. I would suggest you watch this movie when you're sure you can handle it.
Now let's get into the review. The scenes are really realistic. Despite the slightly unrealistic scenario (the drill that drills in a comet and places a nuke inside) it is a well played movie. I remember one scene really good that made a big impact on me. It's a shot made after the comet was made public. You see a bunch of cars and campers on a street with everybody outside of their car with the air raid siren in the background. The fear on people their faces was so realistic. Every time I hear the air raid siren, I think of that scene (wich is every four weeks on Monday here in The Netherlands). The ending was a bit cliché. I saw it coming from miles away. In all these types of movies the main player dies. And in the way it happened, as a sacrifice, really made it too cliché. But despite that, I think it's a great movie and make sure you can handle it before watching it.
I rated it as a seven.
