Natasha Henstridge Movie:

Impact (Miniseries) [Blu-ray] Reviews:
Halfway is probaly a good place to stop
2009-12-10 - I watched the first half of this film. I feel no need to watch the second half.
The acting is not terrible, but not great. The writing is not terrible, but not great either.
In the first half of the film, everybody is put into a position where they have to sacrifice 'everything' to be part of the team that saves the earth.
This provides a certain amount of dramatic potential, but you quickly realize, that by the beginning of the second part of the film, they've written themselves into a corner and that whole theme becomes irrelevant. A film that takes a close look at how people decide to do what they do and how that affects their loved ones would make an interesting drama... but this is not that film.

In all films like this, where the fate of the planet hangs in the balance; the writers have to make choices about what does and does not happen. The writers of this film don't appear to have made good decisions about would happen first and what would happen next. Additionally, the director and the editors did not do a good job selecting the most important or most interesting pieces of the puzzle.

My feeling is this; if you're going to write a drama about people and the choices they make and things that happen to them as a result... you probably don't want to start by blowing up the planet. It's kind of like burying the lead in a newspaper story. Nobody cares about love affairs and bratty kids when the moon is about to strike the earth.

What on earth?
2009-12-10 - I watched the preview and decided to rent this from iTunes. That was a big mistake... I remember thinking that the preview probably was the best part of the movie, and sure enough... You'd need an army of disbelief to suspend to make this even plausible.

This could have been fun, if it had gone campy and not tried to take itself serious... but NO! And don't even get me started on the ending.

I just don't know what they were thinking... This disaster movie is a disaster!

A good SciFy Desaster Movie
2009-11-29 - I really enjoyed this movie. The science behind the science fiction, was flawed, however, saying that, the acting and the story line where where both superb.

Don't watch this movie for the science, watch it for entertainment, like you would watch Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter. It has happeness, sadness, and love, all the things that make up a good movie. The movie is as long as Gone with the Wind, and will keep you interested from start to finish.

The disk 2 is a 'tragedy'
2009-11-27 - This is Movie is not available in UK, so I have to purchase it from US.
I watched the first part on Internet, it's great. But the second part was not uploaded for months.
After the DVD arrived in London, I know why, because the 2nd part is so bad that no one would willing to upload the rest of it.

Don't buy it, or just watch the first part.

2009-11-16 - Listen, people...If you even watch this movie then you obviously have social issues, but if you watch it and then diss it we need to talk. It has all of the classic hollywood goodies, tear-jerkers, and stomach-squeezers we've grown up with. BudgetBDamned, I'm going to make a movie that destroys the earth, then add a pinch of empathy for children that (shudder) have to live through the apocalypse while their grandpa struggles with his own health. All those buggin' asteroid things falling and making my mobile home less than pleasant reminds me that we're all AMERICAN, and GOD bless 'Merica! :) Classic doughboy fodder. Heat, Eat, Enjoy.
