Seriously, I would not give this film the time (which I obviously have, hence this review lol) in terms of watching. It has been very badly made, very cheap and tacky, very poor acting and special effects are awful. As they say ' I'll give this a pass '......never a truer word said. This movie is diabolical trash. My expectations were, slightly, a little high for this movie, but after watching just 5 minutes of it, I knew then that it was very much a exceedingly low budget movie done, even for this trash of a movie, very much on a basis of ' quickly done with little thought ever being put into it '. I do not think there is 1 positive thing I can say about this movie.........lines and lines of negative appraisal most definitely. To conclude, give this movie a wide berth.
Interesting in that it makes you think about why it was so bad and other films are so good. It seems to me that the screenplay was the main problem as it could have been a hilarious spoof with a good writer, in which case the amateurish production values, direction and photography would be largely irrelevant or even help it.
The best part was seeing Robert Picardo from Star Trek: Voyager where he did a great job as The Doctor, while the worst part was seeing him in such a poor film. Picardo had an unintentionally funny line: "We're being told, from the sheer size of it, on impact, nothing will live." I and my friend burst out laughing. How did he keep a straight face?

While "Age of Tomorrow" is not the most horrible of movies from The Asylum, then it is quite a far way from being top notch entertainment.
The story is about a massive meteor on collision course with Earth and the US military (of course) amass an expedition to send a small group of people out to blow up the meteor before it impacts with Earth (can you say "Armageddon" anyone?). But the meteor is not what it appears, and soon mankind finds itself in a battle for life and extinction.
Yep, that was basically it, and then throw in a few elements from "Starship Troopers" as well, and you essentially have "Age of Tomorrow".
The effects were actually adequate, and the aliens themselves were alright to look at. While the space-faring outfits of the people looked uncomfortable and like toy version, they were still on the right path with something interesting. If you have played the "UFO" games, then you will enjoy the outfits - just a shame that they didn't put more effort into making them more realistic and actually look like military-grade armor.
Story-wise, then "Age of Tomorrow" wasn't particularly impressive in any way. Everything was something that had been seen before in other Sci-Fi movies.
As for the acting, well, you know what you get here. And the only reason for me sitting down to watch the movie was because of Kelly Hu, but sadly her role wasn't a big one.
The movie's poster/cover makes it look a lot more interesting than the movie itself actually turned out to be.
There is very little to recommend in order to make you sit down and watch "Age of Tomorrow", so you might as well better spend your time, effort and money elsewhere.

Dear Joel Hodgson and Mike Nelson; the ultimate film makers for some new seasons of MST3K are finally here, just think, your very own bad movie making crew, introducing ASYLUM with THE WORST films to ever make it to any screen. It might be a bit overkill for the MST3K team and I wouldn't want to harm any robots in the viewing of these movies. I seen an appetizing movie, went to check it out first, and nearly laughed myself to death reading the reviews, come to find out it is a film from Asylum, I didn't want to ruin my fun by viewing the movie.
read the reviews, they are so much better than an Asylum movie, and I really gotta say, some of these reviews are just hysterical

There are many bad movies and then there is this film. You can tell that some of the actors tried to justify their participation for themselves, whilst being in front of the camera. I wonder what the auditions must have been like...
The plot is riddled with holes and the main hero character has a nonsensical story arc to follow along the way. Dialogue is so bad it hurts!
Some of the costumes actually look halfway decent, given the low budget of the production. And while the location sets are not bad looking and set the tone for the action well, the production was simply lazy and did not prepare them at all. For instance there is a scene later in the film where the hero and his comrades first set foot on an alien world. While the scenery looks interesting and the trees and plants have all been made to look otherworldly by giving them weird colors in post production, the illusion only lasts for a few seconds at most. Why? Well, they forgot to remove the educational signs sticking out of the ground in front of every freaking plant they walk past. They obviously filmed this in a botanical garden of sorts and did not bother with hiding that fact at all. Incredible!
If this movie was actually entertaining to watch, I could recommend it at least for a few laughs on a rainy Sunday afternoon, but as it stands this is the worst pile of rubbish I have ever seen.
You have been warned!

- WissenswertesMany people do not realize that this is an Asylum film. It is supposed to be a "mock-buster" of Edge of Tomorrow - Live. Die. Repeat (2014). A mock buster has a similar plot and name from a real blockbuster and cashes in on the similar name. Asylum productions has released many of these mock busters just after the real films get released.
- PatzerThe shuttle as it approaches the asteroid, is on a collision course because the coordinates are incorrect due the asteroid slowing down. If that were the case, they wouldn't be on a collision course, they would either miss the asteroid completely or have slowed down too soon and would easily be able to match the speed of the asteroid for a safe landing.
