Deep Impact

Genre: Action/Sci Fi/Thriller
Film certification: PG

Two teenage astronomy club members alert astronomer Dr. Marcus Wolf to their sighting of an unusual comet. After Wolf realizes the comet will hit Earth he attempts to alert his colleagues, but he dies in a car accident after leaving the observatory. One year later, a reporter for MSNBC in Washington, DC, Jenny Lerner (Leoni), discovers that the government was hiding its knowledge about the comet, which the government had classified as an "E.L.E", an acronym for an extinction-level event.

This movie will drive you bonkers with the screenplay and the technically sound details of the comet and its impacts etc and the way the comet impact is shown visually. The emotional touch to the film makes it even more interesting. Amazing sci fiction movie I have seen in a long time.




My rating: 8.75/10 (6 or less- Avoid, 6 and above- OK types, 8 and above- worth watching once, 9 and above- very good and must watch)
