For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
A different way of telling a story
Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Bad acting, bad scripting, bad editing. Can't get any badder than that.
The Asylum put this piece of space junk on film, and as usual for The Asylum it's a real piece of trash: an almost worthless would-be disaster flick, chock full of cheesy acting and cheesier special effects. The storyline sees a gigantic meteor heading towards Earth: boffins decide to try to blow it up, but all they succeed in doing is making tons of meteorites hit the Earth and blow up various places.What this all boils down to is the usual rugged hero and his pretty sidekick attempting to outwit and evade human villains alongside the killer meteorites, which seem to have some kind of homing ability in the way that they're constantly chasing after our heroes. If you've seen one CGI meteorite strike you've seen them all, so after about ten minutes this film becomes boring in the extreme. Claudia Christian (THE HIDDEN) appears in a minor role.
Normally I am a fan of the over the top cheesy B, C, or D grade movies. The bad effects, the sub-par acting, and attempts at being basically a knock off of a descent movie that has already been made.But I'm having a hard time enjoying this movie.Yes despite the low quality acting, bad graphics, poor script and the kind of ridiculous plots that I live for I cannot enjoy this movie.The movie basically goes like this. Meteor is heading to Earth, governments of the world blow up said meteor and people started getting sick from drinking the water. Main character's daughter and wife get drug away to a quarantine zone where the meteor pieces are later discovered to be heading so the man heads off to rescue his family.The part that I have trouble wrapping my brain around is the fact that people are getting sick BEFORE the meteor crashed to earth and has time to contaminate the water.I don't know if I dozed in the first five minutes and don't recall a really REALLY important detail. Or if the movie is just that bad. Feel free to message me if they explained how the water became contaminated prior to the meteors arrival. Because I completely missed that fact if it was stated and honestly that was the main reason I didn't care for this movie.And yeah I am one of those people that appreciates a plot in movies. Because lets face it, even when something is really bad, it still needs to have a plot.... Even if it is not believable or realistic.It still has to be there.
Strange how there are so many really bad disaster movies around. "Meteor Apocalypse" ranks right up there with the bad ones.Initially, I had no expectations to the movie, and rightly so, otherwise I would be sorely disappointed.The story of this movie is ridiculous and often incoherent. There are so many things and scenes that does not make sense and just makes go "alrighty then..." I am sure the director meant well enough with his movie, but it just didn't come together as a greater unity. "Meteor Apocalypse" was doomed right from the very first minute, already there it was incoherent and downright stupid.The CGI effects in "Meteor Apocalypse" are bad, though not the worst I have seen, so that got to count for some, at least.Some might find it enjoyable if you got nothing better to do, and just want some mindless way to pass an hour and a half. Expect nothing from this movie, and disable your brain if you are going to watch this movie.The plus in this movie is that not all of the acting is all that crappy.Sad that so many disaster movies are well-intended, but fail to deliver.
