Your life will be no better having watching this movie. Well, unless you are a fan of stiff acting, cliché dialog, cheesy and nonsensical special effects, plot holes, shaky cameras, pointless pretty boys, and bad decisions.
One example: the meteors come in from multiple angles, which makes zero sense.
You have been warned.

A meteorite from outer space collides with a human space station called Hyperion, killing immediately 12 astronauts from the NASA. More meteors are falling on Earth, causing terrible damages in the cities. A scientist is investigating why the warnings regarding the dangerous trajectory of the meteorites were hidden, causing the accident to happen.
The plot of this film could be the basis for a good 70's-like disaster movie, or a post-2001 conspiracy film. Unfortunately, the acting is awful, the script is horrible, and the art direction is terrible. Did I mention the extremely bad acting?
It looks like a TV drama, but it worst than that. Stay away from this film.

It was going well until the dreadful shakycam started. A few factual errors too, for example there are no meteors in space so how could a space station be hit by one? LOL (Meteors only occur in the atmosphere)
Horrible dreadful movie. I am a fan of B movies. Most are stupid and the acting is subpar. But this film can't even come close to being a mediocre B movie. The film features a lot of unknowns, except for megastar Cynthia Gibbs. Just kidding about the "Megastar" thing. But Gibbs does make an appearance. She does not sing, however. Anyway skip this syfi thriller whenever possible.
I gave this one star for sorting purposes only.

Okay. I like these 'B' movies. But I almost quit watching this one twice. Fortunately, the fast-forward button on my remote allowed me to get past the gratuitous sex scenes, which, by the way, were L then G and near the beginning. Once past that, the movie became what I expected, which is why it got three stars. The bad guys versus the really good guys who have to save the world. NOTE to producers & directors -- THAT is what people wanted to watch. Producers/directors -- you want better ratings for your movies. Stop putting scenes in the movies that have NOTHING to do with the plot! In this movie, it was sex scenes. It added NOTHING to the movie.

- TriviaThis film is not related to the novel 'The Fall of Hyperion' by Dan Simmons, or any of his Hyperion saga, a science fiction epic series set in the 29th century.
- GoofsThey stated that the space station was in Geo Synchronous orbit. The space station is not in GEOSYNC orbit but orbits at about 200 miles up making an orbit about every 90 minutes. GEOSYNC orbit is about 22,000 miles up. The images of the space station in the movie show its orbit to be low earth orbit.
