    Dullness in Directing

    This is a bit of a cold war type movie, in the sense that we have terrorists sabotaging a space station, in order to satisfy their control freak demons.

    Being set in space makes it tough to make interesting, but it can be done.

    Isolated, closed quarters can go either way. It depends on the director more than the writer.

    The script isn't great, but that doesn't matter. "Enclosed spaces" takes good directing. It takes proper technique with cameras and with cut away scenes, and with interesting props.

    These are horribly managed here.

    True, the worst settings are mundane ones such as city streets, motor vehicles, and offices, with the very dullest being submarines and space stations.

    Still, this is where directing is important. You need a lot of grunge, for one thing, and that's missing here. Everyone's hair stays perfectly in place, and you never get the feeling the characters are anywhere but on a movie set.

    This is difficult to stay awake through. Especially for guys, since the heroine is very average looking. It would help to add some grunge to her appearance to make her more dynamic, but that is a major failure of the director again.

    This is how not to direct a movie.

    Can you guess why I decided to watch this one?

    "Fallout" is some kind of sci-fi/action/thriller deal that falls short on sci-fi elements and severely lacks action & thrills. So, about 3/10 should do it. I don't think I'm overrating things here. Strongly impressed by the film's blandness, uninspired directing and almost non-existing special effects, I went and checked out what else director Rodney McDonald might have cooked up. And I learned I had already seen the supreme Graig Sheffer vehicle "Deep Core" (2000). Hey, at least that one had crappy CGI.

    Oh yes, why on earth did I decide to watch this, right? Well, it stars the amazing Frank Zagarino. Who is he, you ask? Well, nobody you should know, really. Only, the guy played a relentless criminal cyborg in "Shadowchaser" (1992), a merciless brutal cyborg in "Project Shadowchaser II: Night Siege" (1994), an utterly demented killer-cyborg in "Shadowchaser III: Alien Force" (1995) and also a surprisingly other kind of cyborg in "Shadowchaser 4: Orion's Key" (1996). I liked all that.

    Poor Story + Poor Dialogue = Bad Movie

    Did anyone read the script before they shot this film? Hearing the dialogue come from Daniel Baldwin's mouth was like listening to fingernails scratching a blackboard.

    The plot: Russian Terrorists plot to steal nukes in space and hold the earth hostage. No, I'm not kidding.

    It's tough to blame the director when given a script like this one. Although, he must take some of the blame. Come on... in the future the Army uses EV-1 electric cars? Cars? Not trucks. Cars. It was like watching clowns at a circus unload from a VW Bug.

    Laugh out loud funny, only problem, it wasn't a comedy.

    Really bad script

    This movie has one of the worst script for a Sci-Fi film I've ever seen. The actors were OK, the direction was tolerable, but the script !!. Russian terrorists, nuclear bomb, in space !

    Soundtrack sounds like "The Boat" spoof

    As already stated by others, this flick sucks pretty much, however I´d like to point out the score, especially during the end-credits (or should I call it "blacklist"?).

    It really, really, and I mean really sounds like a poor spoof of Klaus Doldinger´s "Convoy"-Track from "The Boat"-Score.

    Even Sonar-Pings are in it...

    But nomen est omen I guess. The Fallout Score was done by David and Eric Wurst, The Wurst-Brothers!!! :o)

    Wurst is German for Sausage...

    This Movie sucks, and sucks, and then it´s over...

    • Trivia
      The X-33 featured in the film was canceled in 2001, two years after the film was made. The cancellation was due to engineers having problems with the carbon composite hydrogen fuel tank, similar to the issues in the movie. As a result, the X-33 never flew.
    • Goofs
      During the shuttle countdown, the Public affairs Officer announces the retraction of the Orbiter Access Arm, and it is seen swinging away from the Shuttle. But this happens at about T-30 seconds from launch, when it actually occurs around T-5 minutes. In addition, by then a shot has already been shown with the arm fully retracted.
