From looking at the DVD box, I decided not to watch Meteor Apocalypse as a film, but as a simple story about a man trying to find his family in difficult times. I put the cheap special effects, bad acting and script aside, and just waited to see what would happen next.
It reminded me a lot of the recent BBC series Survivors, except every 20 minutes there are meteors raining down on everyone.
The main character of David is played to good effect by Joe Lando, giving us a surprisingly good portrayal as the courageous man does his best to find his family and help people along the way. I was pleasantly surprised to see Claudia Christian appear as David's wife and mother to their child. I had not seen her in anything since the end of the Babylon 5 series.
Some things don't quite make sense, but when we are regularly shown conflict within the disaster management center, it may explain why some things occurred.
Not to be taken too seriously, but as a light contribution to the disaster science fiction genre.
