Deep Impact

Rating:
Summary: Good as good does
Review: Movie has more depth than cartoonish 'Armagedon' although all members of both productions are generally good to excellent. These comments (negative for 'Deep Impact' & positive for 'Armagedon') lead me to believe that most women didn't care for 'Deep Impact'. Proof of why God put female parts on women-So men would talk to them

Summary: better than Armageddon
Review: Even though this movie and Armageddon deal with similar ideas, they are vastly different in how they approach them. Here, the people seem more real, although still somewhat routine. I especially liked Morgan Freeman as the President and Robert Duvall as the veteran astronaut. And as a response to the viewer from Croatia why not a black President?? Colin Powell is just such a man. Also of note is the journey to the comet which was convincing and interesting. There are the riot scenes and partings and a lot of other scenes that are 'obligatory' for an epic disaster film. A lot of people like to look down on this film for doing that, but think about it, if the end was coming, wouldnt there be mostly those kinds of things happening all around? Actually, I give this film 4.5 stars and not a five because of one thing. It lost courage to show something truly special on the cinematic screen, and that was exactly what it set out to do. Show the extinction of earth above ground and the subsequent means of survival. That would be a bold direction rather than the one they did take, which was more 'Hollywood' than anything else. I watched this movie and Armageddon back to back for the first time each so that I could gauge which was the better. Although Armageddon does have some fun to it and some good one liners, its impossible to really take that film seriously, whereas Deep Impact attains a degree of credibility, a much stronger hold on reality.

Summary: A very good movie, more realistic than armageddon
Review: This movie is better than armageddon, it show that dealing with a comet is something to worry about not something to joke about. The effects were pretty good, they could have been better. Overall it was a good movie.

Summary: Really Bad
Review: I think this movie could have done a lot better. Armaggedon is WAY better!! I mean It doesn't have ANY Humor in it. I wish I could give it 0 stars!

Summary: THIS MOVIE IS AWESOME!!!!!
Review: In other movies like Armageddon, Asteroid (TV - NBC), and Volcano, something bads is or is going to happens and it is stopped and the damage isn't too much. But in Deep Impact it doesn't go that way. Instead, thy aren't able to stop it and plan a course of action to preserve life on eart. This movie will make you laugh, cry, and smile. It is one of the best movies. I LOVED IT!

Summary: Somebody spent good money to make this TURKEY!
Review: How could Morgan Freeman and Robert Duval have gotten themselves into this boring, stupid, and totally un-entertaining waste of time and money? By the time it was mercifully over, I was embarrassed to think I had actually watched the whole thing, let alone spent money to rent it. The only redeeming factor was my hopeful anticipation that just maybe, something bad might happen to Tea Leoni's obnoxious mouth-breathing character. I liked all the goofy, over the top "heroes" in ARMAGEDDON and cheered when they succeeded. In DEEP IMPACT, after the first few minutes, I was rooting for the comet.

Rating:
Summary: Don't see it.
Review: I hated it. IT sucked. I don't recomend this movie to others. I never want to watch this movie ever again in my whole entire life. I don't like it because the people are stupid. No one watch this dumb movie. Why didn't they just ram into it in the first place. Die you dumb movie.

Summary: Typically American we-will-save-the-world film
Review: If anybody told me the topic of the film before I saw it, I could have guessed 95% of what will happen. Predictable as it is, it offers no excitement whatsoever. And I also think that the Black president is just too much. I would like to see that happen! Everything else is just like I wrote in my summary: America is the saviour of the Earth (especially the incredibly intelligent president), no one else can do anything and is just standing by waiting for the miraculous saving. I am just surprised that the Russian member of the space ship crew was not ridiculed as they usually are in American movies. If you really have to (somebody is pointing a gun at you)go and see this "film".

Rating:
Summary: Great entertainment, but poor DVD
Review: As its been said 53 times before me, Deep Impact is more realistic than the idiotic, misogynistic Armageddon. It also manages to be disturbing, not ridiculous, in its depiction of disaster. So why wasn't one of the more pleasant surprises of 1998 given a better treatment on DVD? No extras to speak of, except a blah trailer. Production notes, or some sort of commentary would've been welcome. The widescreen is nice, however. Oh yeah, how come those astronauts caught in space dont grow beards or long hair after a year? A huge error in a pretty good movie.

Summary: The Best Movie I Have Ever Seen!!!
Review: No one could possibly describe how good this movie is. All I can tell you is that "go and see it yourself!"
