Nice effects, shame about the movie.

Rating: 2/10 (2 January 1999)

This is A Bad Film. The effects are impressive, but there are credibility gaps that you could fly a comet through. Example: A meteorite hits New York, leaves no crater, and the guy and his dog standing a few feet away is only bruised? Oh, please.
All that money for special effects - you'd think they would have saved some to come up with a good plot and script. This film was downright painful to watch at times.
If you like zero-thought action/effects movies you'll love it. But if you want a film that has believable characters and a good storyline get Deep Impact instead. Same idea, but with better acting and less reliance on FX.
