I saw this movie many years ago as a youth. Much later there was that cluster of similar disaster movies: Deep Impact and Armageddon.

I remember thinking: This has been done before. You know, that movie about the meteor. What was it called again?

I saw this a couple of times. Quite enjoyable.

The only thing that I remember from this movie is that I had a book of mazes and other puzzles that I got as part of some kind of promotion for the film. The cover was the movie poster and all the mazes were shaped like lumps of rock. At least they were better than those crappy mazes that are nothing but right angles.

I love the Tempest-style credits.

Are top-tier actors so hard up for cash that they stoop to doing this kind of dreck? Or what’s the deal?

Whose voice is that as the announcer for the trailer? It sounds familiar but I can’t place it.
