hollywood at it's worst

Rating: 1/10 (21 July 2000)

Even with a simple and unbelievable story like some big asteroid coming from nowhere, and of all the infinitely big empty space going exactly for the planet earth, this could've been at least an OK film. But, all the other things that make a good film are missing here from the start. The childish and unbelievable scene of the father shooting at his daughter's boyfriend; the lack of true emotions by any one character; the script which calls for meteor showers any time the film gets boring; the total predictability of the plot; the shallowness of characters and bad acting on their part (which I think has more to do with direction then actors). In any case, a week story gets an even weaker script which gets made into a boring special effects fest. Steve Buscemi was good as always. Other then that I have a hard time remembering anything else that was good about this film...
