Vile

Rating: 1/10 (19 December 2005)

How this movie has a score of nearly 6 out of 10I will never fathom.
Bruice Willis is an oil worker who thinks shooting at anyone who comes within 100 miles of his daughter is acceptable behaviour. He and his band of equally dysfunctional coworkers are called upon by NASA to SAVE THE WORLD! from an ENORMOUS METEOR! that threatens the existence of all life on Earth, and ONLY America CAN SAVE MANKIND! They plan to land a crew on the asteroid and drill a hole in it, then drop a nuke down the hole and blow the asteroid clean in half, which each piece heading off at an angle that means it will miss the Earth. Once again, NUKES SAVE MANKIND!
I'd sooner stare directly at the sun through a telescope for a few hours than watch this piece of trash again, it would certainly be less painful. The acting was diabolical, the special effects hideously overblown and the science was just plain wrong. Bruce Willis should stick to wearing vests and saving the world from megalomaniacs, it's what he does best.
