Emotion, Space and Willis!

Rating: 9/10 (4 August 2002)

I loved this movie, and still do, for its breadth, its humor, its characters and the way it carries off a theme of global togetherness. And then there is the special effects, the space sequences, the feeling of disaster as the Earth is pounded, and the witty script. Willis is superb as always, his vapid cynicism is really put to work in this movie. Liv Tyler is better than average, I would rate this performance above all her others (Lord of the rings included). It is also great when your feeling of unreality as a bunch of complete crazies is sent into space is mirrored utterly by the people on screen. And look out for the special scene where the motly lot appears on people's TV screens. I don't tire of this movie, Deep Impact eat your heart out. Now that movie really was corny :) Please sit back and wide screen it!
