Meteor: First Impact

This movie was slow, actors fair, but the script let them down. There was too much time walking around in the woods looking for Lucas. There flashback scenes with the mother, disscussing dying of cancer, which seemed to be out of place with what is happening, probably to fill in time. Then more walking around in the woods getting to a station, where they finally find Lucas. The ending leaves you up in the air, as I watched this movie on Netflix, the screen went blank. I thought it was another ad, then the credits appeared, I don't know what happened. Maybe they forgot to write an ending? Very disappointing.

"Meteor: First Impact" is a cinematic catastrophe that leaves viewers longing for a real meteor strike to put an end to their suffering. From the opening scene, it's clear that this film is on a collision course with failure. The plot, if you can call it that, is a jumbled mess of clichés and predictability.

The characters are as flat as the surface of the moon, lacking any depth or development. Their actions and motivations are often baffling, making it impossible to invest in their fates. The dialogue is so cringe-worthy that it's almost impressive, with cheesy one-liners that belong in a parody rather than a serious disaster movie.

Special effects, which should be the saving grace of a film like this, are shockingly bad. The meteor itself looks like a poorly animated rock, and the destruction it causes is laughably unrealistic. It's as if the filmmakers were trying to outdo the absurdity of the script with equally absurd visuals.

The pacing is excruciatingly slow, with long stretches of nothing happening followed by brief moments of chaos that lack any tension or excitement. Even the most die-hard disaster movie fans will find themselves checking their watches and wondering when it will all end.

In conclusion, "Meteor: First Impact" is a catastrophic failure in every sense of the word. It's a film that should come with a warning label: "View at your own risk." Save your time and money for something more deserving of your attention, because this meteoric disaster deserves nothing more than a 1 out of 10 rating.

It was an enjoyable film. I watch movies to go somewhere else, and this film took me away. The storyline is solid, the cinematography is beautiful, and a chilling end-of-the-world scenario leaves you on the edge of your seat.

I often wonder what the future has in store for us all. The thoughts are overwhelming at times, and the repercussions of our decisions can be devastating. Why is it that people struggle to listen to each other? Why do we look the other way when things are wrong? Why are systems set up to maintain themselves at the expense of others? Would we listen if warned, or would we ignore the signs? The questions are daunting, and the film touches upon them with style.

I absolutely love what I fondly refer to as "bad sci-fi". If it's a disaster movie - 'specially dealing with space, meteors, or weather, I'm there. It's standard fare during the winter on a cold Saturday morning. I never expect a riveting story line, always expect cheesy graphics, and am never surprised by subpar acting. At times, I've been surprised but it doesn't happen often. If you're of the same frame of mind, do NOT waste your time on this one. The absolute lack of action, the confusing flashbacks, the absence of intensity... this is a colossal waste of time. I watched it all the way through and, trust me, you'll spend most of your time waiting for something to happen.

I love a good bad "B" disaster movie. They are so ridiculous they are funny. They follow the same silly formula. This movie didn't have a point or one good laugh. Not even bad science facts. Didn't care about any of the characters. Giving credit to a 10 year old is insulting to the 10 year old. I think a cat dancing on my keyboard could come up with something better. If we were to look at the quality of the movie itself: flashbacks weren't explained; meteor's weren't explained; relationships weren't explained. Lots of cursing which was basically dialogue filler. I love cursing but it has to be used for a reason. Bottom line-don't bother.
