Asteroid-a-Geddon

I sat through this, mostly as the handset was a little out of reach and I'd just had a large roast dinner.

The like the word Petawatts, a lot.

I fear for the safety of the next person i hear saying it in real life.

Dont do it to yourself, nothing good is here.

A new low for The Asylum, who are not even so-bad-it's-good anymore. Barely any kind of FX in this one at all, just a lot of people chit-chatting with looks of mild consternation on their faces. Eric Roberts is the 'name' cast member whose role is just to sit behind a desk and respond to people shouting at him. Almost as bad as cinema gets.

The acting and special effects are Horror-a-geddon! Some of the actors are so bad, it's almost funny.

Wow, HORRIBLE actress. only one emotion - anger. even sensitive lines are delivered angry. As bad as I've ever seen

and outrunning a Tsunami in a car from a standstill - just wow!

Well, truth be told the title of the movie set off an alarm clock already. I mean, "Asteroid-a-Geddon", seriously? Yeah, well still I ended up sitting down to watch this disaster movie. And then the logo of The Asylum came up on the screen, and I just knew it was going to be one of those movies.

Let's just be honest, The Asylum is not exactly known for their track record of putting out super impressive movies. Sure, once in a blue moon they manage to release something that is outstanding in comparison to their usual releases. But as it happened to turn out, "Asteroid-a-Geddon" was not one of those uniquely outstanding movies.

In fact, the storyline in "Asteroid-a-Geddon" was just so generic and mundane that you could actually drift off to Slumberland and wake up a bit later and continue to watch the movie as it you never missed a beat. Not to mention that the movie was as predictable as these type of disaster movies come.

The special effects in "Asteroid-a-Geddon" were adequate. But for a movie made in 2020, the special effects left much to be wanted. I mean, it felt like I was watching a movie from the late 1990s or thereabout. The special effects served their purpose well enough, hence being adequate, but they were by no account impressive or visually bedazzling.

"Asteroid-a-Geddon" doesn't really boast itself on having that much of an impressive cast list. I mean, there was Eric Roberts as the only familiar face to me. And let's just be blunt, I mean, he is Eric Roberts for better or worse.

This disaster movie from writer and director Geoff Meed is not one that you have to sit down to watch, as it is by no means an outstanding or memorable addition to the natural disaster movie genre. In fact, it offers nothing new to the genre, actually.

My rating of "Asteroid-a-Geddon" lands on a generous three out of ten stars.
