big, loud, and stupid

Rating: 1/10 (4 May 2001)

This movie was very, very difficult for me to sit through. Every single scene stuck out at me as being absolutely ridiculous. I couldn't believe it when Steve Buscemi went off the rails all of a sudden for no reason. There is one disastrous problem after another on the fake looking comet, each problem being more deadly than the last! But the problem solving team of grunts continually manage to solve each problem and encounter the new one every five to ten minutes. The action scenes were poor, I had no idea what was going on most of the time. How can you enjoy an action scene, in a spacecraft, if you can't see whats happening because the camera is all over the place? Dialogue was truly awful. As deadly comet movies go, 'Deep Impact' is a hell of a lot better.
