An Enjoyable Movie

Rating: 6/10 (9 September 2001)

The characters are an entertaining and likeable bunch of misfit off shore oil drillers. The plot is formula, with a decent amount of foreshadowing so you probably have it figured out by the end, not all the details but the major events you should be expecting. The special effects are amazing. The physical visualization of the crystal-like like structures found on the meteorite/comet heading towards the earth are very dark but pleasing. The movie was a little long and over the top but still very entertaining for both the sci-fi fan and the non-sci fi fan.
