Summary: Tee Shots At Tree Huggers
Review: I love it! No other way to put it. Bruce, Ben and Billy Bob are great but this is truly a group effort. You will be captured by Bear (Michael Clarke Duncan, Green Mile) Chick (great character pulled off by impressive acting, Will Patton) and my fav, Rockhound (another tremendous performance by Steve Buscemi.) This movie is great for us guys, it has action and great sound but also pulls in a not too sappy romance (helps keep your lady happy.) Great soundtrack and amazing scenery make this a must have DVD. This should be the second DVD any movie fan purchases. Great movie, treat yourself.

Summary: good movie but
Review: this was a good movie but not a great movie. it was just an every day good. Its about a asteroid hurtling toward earth and nasa has to send up a group of roughneck oil drillers to do the job. anywho harry(bruce willis)goes threw changes in the movie from starting out as a joker to being very serious. Although this movie gets a little to senemintal at times its still good. But out of the two asteroid/comet movies go with deep impact its a little better.

Summary: Fantastic Formula Film
Review: This film has nothing new in it, but nothing new is required. If you think about it, aren't most of the James Bond movies, for example, very similiar. Yet most of them are still very good. Same concept here. This is a typical disaster story where something is going to destroy the earth. (Here, it is an asteroid flying through space) We find some heroes, rebellious drillers and miners of all things, who may be able to save the planet. They, however, are impeded by stupid government agents who don't understand the job, or what needs to be done. Since the end of the story is really never in serious doubt, (how many of you think James Bond will ever lose?) it is how the story is told which makes the difference. Here we have great special effects, a good sound track including some nice Aerosmith tunes, and Bruce Willis. The drama overall is good, the comedy is overplayed a little, but it adds to the fun of the movie. If you want a good night of fun, not much serious thought, this is your movie. However, if you want a more dramatic and "realistic" view of this particular scenario, get "Deep Impact." That one is not funny, but it very well made.

Summary: A physical and artistical joke
Review: If the American flag would have been on the payroll of this movie, it would have probably gotten more money than Bruce Willis himself; in every third scene or so it sure is to pop up. Oh yes, our American, down to earth boys are going to save the world, who else? The wipeout of a city like Paris is only good for a nice FX and that it might be useful to get help from the rest of the world never occurs to the NASA scientists. Well, if you've seen "Deep Impact" you know the drift. Then let's talk about physics - the way it is treated in this movie would make Mr. Newton spin in his grave. Gravity on an asteroid the size of Texas? And apparently just as much as on earth, the way the protagonists moved? Well, to get that going the asteroid would have to have the weight of Earth on as much room as Texas has. The density would be so high that no matter if you used a 10000 watt drill or a toothpick to dig a hole the result would be the same. But somehow the gravity also seemed to fade out on story-line convenience, when one of the landing vehicles is able to drift over a wide valley on the asteroid by a little thrust of its boosters. We are not even talking about "why" these vehicles were armed with heavy guns. Now about the actors: Liv Tyler is a fine young woman, although not a fine young actress. Bruce Willis as her father is like Arnold Schwarzenegger as Ghandi. Overall the entire cast seemed to not really know what they actually should be portraying, so the fault might not be on the actors, but on the bad storyline. If this movie would not pretend that it has to be taken serious, you could actually enjoy it - as a movie rental for a boring Saturday night. But if you are into patriotism go for it, anyway.

Summary: ok movie
Review: I thought this movie was alright, but right after deep impact came out bam this comes out. Same story meteor is headed for Earth, and a rogue band of oil miners from the middle of the Atlantic are going to save the world? Maybe this meteor was the size of Texas whoooo im shaking i guess deep impact's meteor wasn't big enough for them? But all in all i guees this movie was enjoyable.

Summary: reality sucks
Review: Yes, Deep impact had a more coherent story line. Yes Deep Impact was more realistic. But come on...did anyone really believe John Mclain was such a super cop in Die Hard? No, we went to be entertained. I like watching movies to escape reality, not live it. I can pick up the newspaper or watch the news anytime I want a reality check. Being a guy, I absorbed as much of the bass and sound effects that I possibly could and loved every minute of it. Excellent movie if you want action. Looking for romance? Get Pretty Woman or something, this movie isn't for you.

Summary: WOAH! THIS IS WICKED!
Review: This is one of the wildest movies I've ever seen! It has everything you would want to see: colossal action, eye-popping special effects, stirring emotion, and wicked comedy! Bruce Willis is a great actor. He should've won an Oscar for his performance. Ben Affleck is great as well. Liv Tyler, what a woman. But what's at the heart of the story is one that is very stirring: eight men willing to risk their lives "For All Mankind." This is what made INDEPENDENCE DAY so awesome, it's story of Humanity united as one in a time of disaster. A science fiction film that should also be counted among the great epics of our time. I recommend this film to everybody. Trust me, you'll love it! Grade: A+.

Summary: Awful Is Too Kind A Word
Review: Laughably stupid, this movie is best explained as a punishment from God. There is nothing redeeming here, the characters are cloying at best, and I was often confused about who was alive and who was dead (perhaps because I didn't care). Secretly, I was rooting for the Meteor.
