Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

Leofwine_draca Yeah, this one's worse than even the SyFy Channel productions or the various Asylum movies. It's a homage of sorts to the big budget blockbuster flicks like DEEP IMPACT and Armageddon, except that it's made on a tiny budget which means the titular meteorites are horrid CGI monstrosities. Even worse, the narrative unwisely takes a jokey, comic approach to the material which falls flat from the very beginning.I mean, there's nothing very funny about meteorites, so the film has to rely on groan-introducing character humour to work. This is a film where we're asked to identify with and like a cast of various oddballs, including dedicated heroes and annoying teenagers, and journey with them as they fight against the outer space menace. Except you won't, because the script is dire, the acting worse, and you'll be wishing death upon everyone in the cast before long. I think it's true to say that METEORITES! is probably the worst disaster movie you'll see.

alkudsi I'm grateful to the question board for reminding me of the correct title for this movie. I've seen it several times (probably on SyFy Channel), and it was a lot more memorable than some of their other disaster movies. Why? I remembered it well enough to describe the plot so that someone recognized it. I thought there was some interesting chemistry between the husband and wife characters (Tom Wopat and Roxanne Hart). Was it believable? As much as any other meteor movie (and more than some). Would I pay to see it in the theater? No, obviously not. (Of course, I didn't pay to see Tommy Lee Jones in Volcano, either.) Was the science decent? Actually, pretty good.The plot was pretty good, with some nice teen-aged angst thrown in. It did have some interesting plot twists. Great for a late night mind relaxer.Like others, I got duped into the 2-tape package said to contain it on Amazon, and which did NOT contain the movie. I wouldn't mind finding a reasonably priced copy of it for my collection of disaster movies, though!

buiger Wow, this was stupid... And I even like stupid disaster movies!There is absolutely nothing to praise in this film whatsoever. The cast is horrible (especially the lead actors), the screenplay is ridiculous and seems to have been written by a 5-year old, the camera is bad, and even the special f/x are horrible. And then the dialooooguuueeess. They should be cast in stone for posterity, since it is not possible to stuff any more stupidity into 90 minutes of film than what was achieved here.Unfortunately they claim one has to fill in at least 10 lines of text in order to post a review here, but there is nothing worth 10 lines of text in this film! What a waste of time and money!

Michael O'Keefe Nothing outstanding or out of the ordinary about this TV movie. A small Arizona town is celebrating its annual UFO Festival, when Mother Nature provides a fiery display. Comets collide in space shooting meteorites toward earth. My favorite line in the whole movie is, "I treated that truck better than my ex-wife". The effects are pretty low tech. And the acting is predictable and flat. Cast members include:Tom Wopat, Roxanne Hart, Abby Meares and Mark Murphy.
