This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Poor Marina Sirtis. She goes from a steady job at Star Trek: The Next Generation, to being the go-to actress for playing women of a certain age from the Middle East (she even got a turn in the Oscar-winner Crash), and now she's reduced to this. I guess the recession has caused Trek convention speaking fees to dry up, or something.Anyway, in Annihilation Earth, another entry into Sci-Fi's Bulgarian cinema oeuvre, she plays a vaguely official woman with an atrocious Southern accent who oversees a magical Large Hadron Collider-based futuristic power source. Part of which proceeds to explode, nuking a quarter of France. So she rides the head scientist, played by Luke Goss, to figure out what went wrong and fix it.That's honestly about all the plot that makes sense, because stuck in the Sci-Fi plot blender is some stuff about a fellow scientist being a suspected terrorist sympathizer, a bunch of catastrophic things happening, like earthquakes, electromagnetic pulses, and satellites being pulled out of the sky, and, of course, a bunch of explosions. Either way, it ends with the world exploding, because Sirtis gives the wrong order. It's a tragic ending, especially because this film didn't get taken with it.

Whoever thought Marina Sirtis could pull off a Southern accent should go straight back to casting school. Marina herself should be ashamed at even accepting the role. Her acting is dreadful. Most of the other so called actors don't turn in a half decent performance either. The movie is an insult not only to SCI FI Fans but to movie lovers in general. The pace, the effects, down to the half baked storyline all make for a very weak piece of wasted 90 minutes. Certainly the premise for the film is good but it is poorly executed on so many levels. I am constantly amazed at how some projects get off the ground. Watch for the supermodel types supposedly scientists. A priceless line delivered collegen injected lips as they swing by in an obviously CGI created chopper "I've never seen anything like this, makes Hiroshima and Nagasaki looks small in comparison". Annihilation Earth is excruciating and should have been annihilated from the outset. Don't waste your time - Marina Sirtis is an embarrassment to actors everywhere!

I didn't expect much from this movie and honestly, I guess I can say I got what I asked for, so I give it an extra star for delivering what was expected.This movie had a minimal plot, horrible acting, so-so special effects, and too many holes to make it believable. I agree with the other post above that the only thing that was impressive was the ending. Not your typical disaster film.I have to point out one area that no one has mentioned thus far. The lab assistants -- Did anyone notice the fact that the two women were overly attractive for the role that they were playing. Not to mention their purpose was pointless. They had very few lines and those they did they hardly even got them out without it sounding like it was being fed off a teleprompter.I love the fact that terrorists got into a facility with loaded weapons without even a problem. My gas station on the corner has better security protocols than this place did. I think the movie would of been more believable had they made it a 2 part mini series and expanded on the terrorists actually circumventing the security within the facility rather than them just showing up and shooting everyone without a single guard around.

I've been saying this for years. I even wrote a novel (unpublished) about it. I like the no-nonsense ending. (PREACHING) Why don't environmentalists protest CERN? Isn't Earth an environment? All this talk of global warming is not hitting home for me, but the supercollider causing a black hole is very unsettling (END PREACH). As usual, the acting was overwrought but, given the ending, the hysteria fit. The characters were not over-simplified and the effects were effective. SyFy is so hit-and-miss that Saturday night can be a real bummer sometimes, but this was a pleasant surprise. I'd watch this a few more times, and probably will... till the end of the world (2010?).
