Unbearable

Terrible acting by people you actually don't necessarily want on TV. Embarrassing special effects not even expected on Syfy. Bumpy and partially broken plot, i.e. scenes don't connect.

What really struck me was the obvious attempt to swap the gender roles, i.e. the girl officers played the strong and tough ones whilst the guys were dumb making all sorts of stupid mistakes and statements + going for the sucker moves. Even 10 years after a meteor hit really not so credible. This might have been a kinky idea for a 90s movie but in 2014 I would have expected the prdoucers to be a bit more sober about gender aspects...

Bottom line is there was no way I could watch it to the end...

weak sci-fi TV

A meteor crashes into the Earth. Marcus King (Kim Coates) tracks it and leads a group of people into the bunker facility. Some ten years later, the facility is failing and supplies are dwindling. Marcus' daughter Melissa King leads a squad to scavenge only to find murderous mutants and suspicious survivors.

For some reason, the only capable actor, Kim Coates, disappears after the first five minutes. The fighting is weak. The acting is nothing special. It's low budget sci-fi TV. The mutants look cheesy. The production is strictly leftovers from other TV crews. They get to play around with a couple of sets but it's more sad than good camp.

False Informing

Low budget movie. It wasn't a complete waste. However, I checked this out because Kim Coates was first on the list as one of the players in this title, but he was barely in it. He appeared in about the first 5 minutes of the film, and reappears in the last 4 minutes. I don't plan on giving this film a second chance. There are still a handful of unanswered questions about what happened in the film as well. I grabbed this film out of a redbox, which we can't always expect great films from that. This also featured the recording artist Ashanti. I have not listened to her music, but I can say that I certainly hope her talent for music is a lot better than her talent for acting.

Painful...

Criticizing this movie would be like mocking a deaf child for not being able to hear, which is almost as cruel as having to endure the pain of watching it (although I'm sure working on it was even more painful...). #nitrosMovieChallenge.

Pray for a quick death

I would rather be hit by a meteor than watch this pos again...

A meteoroid is a small rocky or metallic body traveling through space. A meteoroid entering the Earth's atmosphere is known as a meteor. If a meteoroid, comet or asteroid actually hits the ground it is known as a meteorite. Meteoroids only range in size from small particles to about 1-meter wide and there is no such thing as a "planet-killer meteor". Edit: As the earth still is in one piece, no "planet-killer meteor" has hit it as yet, but if you look here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vredefort_crater you will find that the idea of meteorites being no larger than 1 meter (or so) is just ludicrous. Also if you look here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicxulub_impactor the idea of a meteorite strike causing the kind of destruction that this movie postulates becomes a lot more plausible.
