This movie was so bad that everyone involved should be prosecuted and imprisoned for crimes against humanity.Just kidding, but it really was that bad.I thought with some big stars like Tim Russ (Tuvok, Star Trek Voyager) and Robert Davai (Kholia, Stargate Atlantis) then it should be at least bearable. Nope. Nothing even close.Coming from a career in the military, the military characters and dialogue were horrific. Not the worst I've seen but still really bad.The Asylum "was" progressing slowly but surely towards better movies, but this was a step back. Even for the Asylum.Save your time, save your money, and just skip this. Trust me, if you watch this you'll wish you had taken my advice.

"Asteroid vs. Earth" tells the same old story of an asteroid on collision course with earth - however, the plan to avoid the collision is different from previous movies on the same subject. Instead of blowing up the asteroid, the protagonists want to cause a massive earthquake, 18 (!) on the Richter scale, to push the earth out of the way. Robert Davi plays a 4 star general who is immediately convinced this lunatic plan is great. So let's blow up the earth to save it! Tia Carrere plays a scientist who is more or less abducted to co-operate, otherwise I presume no person with a scientific mind - or any mind for that matter - would take part in this enterprise. If someone seriously attempts to list the goofs in this movie, especially things are technically not possible, he'll be busy for days.The most enjoyable thing on the Blu-ray disc was the making of, when the stars try desperately to keep a straight face, saying thinks like "I signed for the movie because I thought the script was brilliant". Yes, sure, most likely that's how it happened.

OK, Asylum is known for pretty bad flicks. Sharknado is one of the better of the lot IMHO. This movie is pretty far fetched, the acting sucks, and a lot of canned footage used. BUT I enjoyed the interior sub footage - we're talking "super low budget"! Ever see PC monitors and 'puters, dryer vent hosing, loose wiring draped down from the ceiling or a teletype machine on a sub? And a gay XO? Give me a break... And blasting the ship in two? What a hoot! Also, I liked the mylar aluminum radiation suit (unzipped!) and the lieutenant telling gunny "I was talking to Terry." Gunny says "we know"... sadly the intern dies, making things dire. Then the Saipan volcano saves the day.

the movie was not bad but what I do not understand is the earth is about to end and you had to put a gay guy in it.There is a saying, if you want an alcoholic to be accepted as an an alcoholic stop telling people he is an alcoholic.Hollywood insists on exploiting sexual preferences to gain ratings.Enough is enough.The gay and lesbian population are out there and there are quite capable of making themselves heard without Hollywood turning them into a circus for your ratings or profit.Stop already!Anyway the movie it self had some good graphics the story line was up to par and the acting was very good. But however the script was lacking.Too robotic,too predictable.Not sure why but allot of B movies with the proper care can be hits.
