Meteor Assault

I expected nothing and got nothing. Sure, you expect it won't be anything special, but here, the asteroids aren't really the focus at all. Just a few pseudo-falls, a few horrified looks, and some cracks in the ground, but it's really not a proper disaster movie. It's not even close. But we need films like this too. (31/01/2016)

When the meteorite attacked Mount Rushmore at the beginning and poked Thomas Jefferson in the eye, I was expecting a grandiose disaster spectacle, but nothing happened! Just chatter about family relationships, babble about cosmic threats, and frightened looks at the sky. It isn't until the last ten minutes that anything remotely interesting occurs, and you can only pray it doesn't end the way you think it will. And guess what! A bit of hydrochloric acid, Cape Canaveral on a college courtyard, the son’s knowledge of flight trajectories, and... look, Bruce Willis, and learn! This Friday's moment of disaster poetry on TV again confirmed that Lochlyn Munro is like coliform bacteria. You most often find him in shit. (05/12/2020)
