Don't Listen To Any Of The Negative Revi

I am surprised there are so many negative reviews of this movie. I realize that some people need action shot after action shot or they fall asleep, but quite obviously there are a few movies out there which have a message. In the case of Deep Impact,... the message is hope. If there were a comet or meteorite headed toward the Earth, I hope that our President (whoever he/she may be at the time) would react and plan as Morgan Freeman's character did in this movie.It's not fair when people compare this movie to Armageddon, a movie which I enjoy watching as much as this one. Armageddon was a rock-em, sock-em roller coaster ride with a great cast and a lot of fun one-liners. Deep Impact is a study of how real people might react in a situation where their very lives could hang in the balance. That's the difference. If you like the explosive, roller-coaster ride, watch Armageddon. If you want to see the human drama, through characters in whom you might see yourself, then I highly recommend Deep Impact.

The end of the world - emotionaly

Hollywood seems to be churning out formulaic, star ridden, mega budget blockbusters that please the crowds, rake in the profits while getting taken to the cleaners by the critics. Disaster movies have seemed the be the “craze” over recent years, t...he majority high in effects but lacking in solid characters and storylines – the best example being “Armageddon” of the “meteor hits earth/end of the world” genre…a typically average money spinner which the public lapped up. Despite this, it is refreshing once and a while to see an intelligent, emotional “disaster” vehicle come along in the name of the cerebral Deep Impact.Deep Impact, while a blockbuster in it’s own right, is deeper, thought provoking and in many ways more intense than Armageddon ever will be. Director Mimi Leder doesn’t brush the special effects aside, but merely emphasises its effects on the diverse selection of characters dealing with the potential end of the world. Much more of an emotional roller coaster ride, rather than an explosive one – but effects fans are definitely not left out…and neither are the stars – Robert Duvall, Tea Leoni, Elijah Wood and Morgan Freeman lead the major roles, while an impressive supporting cast keeps things interesting that includes established actors Maximilian Schell, Vanessa Redgrave and the ingénue Leelee Sobieski.Overall, Deep Impact offers something much more than your average run-of-the-mill disaster epic, yet still keeps you on the edge of your seat.

Deep Impact should have been called Deep Disappointment. It is one of the stupidest films in recent years. There are no memorable lines,the cast is atrocious (Freeman as president, no less!), and the visuals are second-rate. As a parody it might have... been entertaining; but they chose to play it straight and created, instead, a film that should be forgotten as quickly as possible. Read more Less
