Earthfall
As a rogue planet roars through our solar system, it acts as an intergalactic magnet that pulls Earth in its wake. Meteors destroy major cities. Fire and ice storms engulf the land. Casualties are in the millions. And as the situation grows even worse, Steve Lannon is determined to reunite with his wife and teenage daughter. But when they stumble into a secret government installation, they'll uncover a nuclear mission that will either blast our planet back into orbit or guarantee front row seats to the end of the world.

The Worst Film Ever
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Well I had expected something much, much worse than what "Earthfall" actually turned out to be.Sure, this was a very generic and predictable disaster movie, but then again so are 90% of the movies in this particular genre. Yet we still watch them for some odd reason. For me it is on the offbeat chance that the movie actually is outstandingly entertaining; which most of them aren't, sadly enough.The story here is about the Earth being pulled out of its orbit and sent hurling into space. Right, very simple, very generic, isn't it? There were heaps of flaws in the movie, of course. And while I am not a man of science or anything, but if the Earth is sent out of its orbit wouldn't that heavily influence the atmosphere gravity and the polar points?I loved how the freezing storm claimed a man's life in less than mere seconds by freezing him solid, yet the female protagonist escaped that fate by merely pulling a blanket up to her chest! Yeah, that was plausible.The special effects and CGI in the movie were actually adequate for a movie of this caliber, so thumbs up there.
REALLY GOOD START, BUT WHERE'S THE ENDING??? Good plot to start, good actors, good acting. Problem is, at the end of the movie I felt as though I'd seen the first quarter of the show and had been cheated out of seeing the last 3 quarters of it. WHY would they take a viewer through all that turmoil just to end it flat at the moment the planet (and it's occupants) were going to start the REAL adventure - creating a new world out of the ruins of the old one. I just CAN NOT understand why they stopped only 1 quarter of the way in. There doesn't seem to be a follow-up movie or a series coming off it. This movie could have continued with so many additional plots; the military setting up a base and people living there, while people who had survived without the military set up small communities all over the globe (working their way out from the area that people were still alive in). It wouldn't have to be every community fighting every other community, either. Why not every community working to help each other and reinstate commerce with each other. There could be a farming community trading goods with a mining community and a crafting community trading goods with both of those, and on and on. Runners as mail carriers. Traveling tutors for the kids, traveling medical units from the medical community, kids sent to craftsmen, hospitals, farms, libraries, etc., to live in their teen years in order to learn a trade (since the colleges would probably no longer be viable, right?) and on and on. Sooooo much more could have come from this movie than just another "shoot-em- up-bang-bang" debacle.
Sorry but I can't keep quiet about this one. It's just god awful. Everything about it is terrible. The acting is probably the best part and after about 30 seconds you realize that it sucks. Even the actors seem to know that the story is terrible, they show no interest in their parts and obviously just want to get paid and leave. The writer has no concept of physics or anything to do with science for that matter. The special effects are cringeworthy. Sure it's a low budget film but that is no excuse, there are some really good low budged movies and this is definitely not one of them. Whomever gave it a 10 out of 10.... well I'm glad you liked it... I didn't.
For a movie with such grandeur title, Earthfall is more like a local neighborhood watch or mall cops running around in random field. It has incredibly poor acting, silly attempt to create drama and expected low quality effect. This is actually one of the worst films that seem far longer than it is, I could've sworn that it had been going for two or three hours.Story is unsurprisingly mundane, there's a planet out of orbit or the sort. The science is explained over zealously and barely makes sense even for B-movie standard. The other main plot is the two leads, both of whom trying to channel Matthew McConaughey, one from his romance comedy days and one from new serious roles. Needless to say, mentioning Matthew McConaughey is already an undeserving praise for them.At least in other similar movies, both quality and genre, there are signs of catastrophe, such as a small town in panic or a bunch of people stuck in traffic. This movie almost exclusively transpires in deserted field with people trying to pass off as scientist or military. Furthermore, its attempt to vilify authority just seems timid and merely serves as padding while the supposed survivors are like random extras from The Walking Dead arguing with each other.Earthfall is not even good for lazy popcorn flick.
