Poor Physics

Rating: 1/10 (1 March 2013)

This is the worst film I think I've ever seen. I'm not even going to start on the ridiculous clichés, numerous countdowns or abhorrent acting, no, it was the shameless disregard of modern physics which was the biggest let down.
I have a limited background in physics, but I know a few basic things about space; a rock the size of Texas cannot have the same gravitational pull as that of the Earth, the difference between detonating a bomb on the surface and detonating a bomb 800ft into a rock the size of Texas will make absolutely no difference, a rock the size of Texas could not simply cleaved in 2 by a bomb, there is no wind or fire in space, the smartest people on the planet would not forget to take the moons gravitational pull into account when predicting the trajectory of the rock (it's like the only thing to consider) and the list goes on. Every scene was painful as I could no longer watch the film, only spot yet another error.
The only sympathy I felt was that towards modern science. R.I.P. Sir Isaac Newton.
