Post Impact

...but I'll try anyway.

ScyFy movies are all terrible, everyone knows that. Theyre also funny and give once popular actors a chance to make a movie again.

This movie is awful, plot holes as big as an uncharted asteroid and -of course- laughably silly.

The "special effects"looks as though a teenager did them on their phone. Wait. A teenager could do better.

But, if you've had a bad day and need to lighten things up, watch these poor actors try and get through their scenes. Your day may not seem so bad after all...at least you didn't have to participate in making this movie. I hope the catering made it worth it for them!

do not watch this movie. I have to go with some/most of the other commentators, admitting I have not been able to finish it. The acting is abysmal and makes cardboard characters look lively. The plot is confused and harebrained. Don't waste your life in front of the TV, go outside, to the beach, shopping, do your laundry, just do something other than watch this movie, pretty much ANYTHING is better.

I actually wanted to submit this now, but the IMDb guidelines demand I submit at least 10 lines. I'm having a hard time writing anything more about this low point of movie history. Well, I liked the dog - one of the best actors in the whole movie!

Honestly, I don't understand why they called this movie post-impact. When you title post-impact, you think of how people might be able to survive after the impact of a meteorite.... Well that's not the issue on this movie, the true issue is about the guy trying to come back to rescue his daughter and wife who got trapped in the disaster zone.... no no no.... I'm sorry that's not the issue. the issue was about saving the world from a crazy genocide who controls a massive destruction weapon.... no no no that was wrong too, the issue is about an infiltrated enemy who tries to get control of the weapon to jack up the prices of oil... no no no, I'm sorry the issue is about restoring the world to its initial state prior to the meteorite impact. No I'm sorry that was not the issue either... The issue is about... Yikes, The truth is I can't summarize the movie. In fact, I really don't know what the movie was all about.

Someday I'm going to learn not to waste my time on made-for-TV movies shown on the Sci-Fi Channel (on USA cable). Admittedly, the special effects on this one were above its normal 1950's B-movie level. Nevertheless, the plot is full of obvious holes that even a child would choke on (e.g., people being shot in all four limbs and still able to win a hand-to-hand fight against an expert fighter). The acting is wooden, the editing is abrupt and annoying, and much of the key dialogue is incomprehensible even with repeated playbacks on a good sound system using a digital feed.

This one isn't worth watching even if you are terminally bored. Read a good book. Heck, read a BAD book; you wouldn't have the intelligence to visit IMDb and own a book THAT bad...

Throw science out the window along with any ideas about plot development, character development and plausible story lines. The special effects are really "special," too. Much of it looks like something you would see in a video game. In fact, I wonder if they didn't just film some shots from a video game to save money.

I enjoyed the film, however, for the laughs. It keeps you wondering just how bad it can get. Just when you think it can't get any sillier-- it surprises you and does.

Just to give you an idea of how bad it is-- the main character is supposedly obsessed with getting back to the zone where he left his wife and daughter, yet he quickly drops his gloom when this British chick sheds her clothes and joins him in the shower. Only moments later, he is clearly hitting on the German chick. Of course, we know he is sensitive and caring, because every now and then he drops his gaze and supposedly thinks of the family he abandoned.

This was a German co-production. I thought the Germans were smarter.
