One of the worst movies I've ever seen.

Rating: 1/10 (17 June 2001)

Not only is this movie horribly, horribly bad from a movie making standpoint, it also has flaws in the science big enough to fly a 747 through. Constant, even gravity on the Mir? Yeah, right. Slingshot around the moon in less than a minute? Maybe in the Starship Enterprise. Split the asteroid in half with 1 nuke, only 800 feet below it's surface? That's like trying to split an apple in half with a capgun cap buried half a centimeter under it's skin. And don't get me started on the editing. I don't know what's gotten into filmmakers these days, but I like for movies to at least stay with one shot long enough for me to tell what's going on. The "monkey on crack" editing style of this movie gave me a headache fifteen minutes in.
Other problems include the fact that at the end of the movie, not only did I not care a bit about any of the characters, I couldn't even tell you their names. There was not a single moment of genuine emotion in this entire movie. Every time they wanted a reaction, they'd crank some Aerosmith music to tell you how you should feel in that scene. I honestly felt no emotional attachment to anyone in this movie. Other things just made no sense at all, like the machine guns on the moon rover things they had. What was that about? Were they expecting to find Marvin the Martian on the asteroid and riddle him with bullets?
Bad editing, no emotion, bad script, bad, bad science. It all adds up to bad movie. Avoid at all costs.
