Summary: Not bad if you ask me
Comment: Honestly, I only bought this one to see how Dirk Benedict evolved after Th A-Team. Altough many reviewers criticize the acting and special effects - and not without reason - this is a good movie, considering the low budget.

It has everything a disastermovie should have, disaster and panic, half-thought plans and a hero without a cause. The public reaction to the moon's shifting orbit could have been brought up better, we only see scietist in labs.

Nonetheless, I am going to watch it again tonight.

Summary: I want my rental code back!
Comment: I can't say I want my money back because I watched this one for free with a code. This is an extremely low budget film starring Stephen Baldwin who seems to be known for C and D movies. In fact I believe he did another one in 2007 called Dark Storm. Well anyway, this disaster film has all the standard characters including the beautiful female scientist with the right answer (learned acting at nights while cutting hair in the day) that is ridiculed by the overbearing egotistical scientist (Dirk Benedict, aka StarBuck from the Battle Star Galactica series who never could act anyway), a demolition man (Baldwin) summoned to save the world with his demo skills - only in space, the not so confident cute with short shorts demo assistant, and of course a sue do replacement organization for NASA called ASI American Space Institute. Enter the typical asteroid hurdling toward earth but bashes into the moon instead riffing a chasm 1000 times larger than the Grand Canyon. All is honky dory until the earth gets spewed with moon rocks and it looks like the moon is going to break apart and end all life on our planet. So, why not send up the confident female shuttle commander, a random shuttle astronaut who will obviously be hit in the head so our hero demo guy can push the button on a bomb that he never built and never really ever understood how it worked until our beautiful scientist red-head told him. Ah, and throw in that the shuttle has gravity on board but seems to defy gravity as it hovers over the core of the moon. Yes we have all the makings of a made for Saturday morning cartoon without the animation. CGI is cheesy, acting is horrid, realism not even attempted, and OMG, Baldwin has some very small albino beady blue eyes that really bug. Get this for your nine year old and wait for the questions - Daddy, is there sound in space? Daddy, is there gravity in the shuttle? And, my favorite...Daddy do we have to watch this? I want to watch the DNC and Hillary! A friend of mine thought it stared Barney Rubble. I told him he was right. If I could I'd render a ZERO in the rating column.

Summary: Formula disaster TV movie
Comment: This movie has all the standard characters and clichés.
This movie has all the standard characters and clichés?
Most rogue comets head strait for earth in all good disaster movies. Well surprise, this animal decided to hit something else.

We have the misunderstood and of course unbelieved scientist.
We have the immobile and disastrous decision making government representative.
We have the structural explosives expert who does not realize his potential until he is challenged.
We have the up and coming assistant who waffles under pressure, and several other standard disaster movie characters.
They all do the standard things and have the standard conversations.
There is a tad of originality in the quantity and timing of overlapping miscalculations and unforeseen complications.

If you have spare time and nothing better to do this presentation is at least not purposely campy.
