Judgment Day | Year: 1999 Directed: - John Terlesky Actors/Actresses: - Ice-T - Suzi Amis - Mario Van Peebles - Suzy Amis Excellent plot, low budget? Judgement Day is similar to Armageddon and Deep Impact, which came out around the same time in 1998-1999. But if I had to choose the best PLOT of any of the "big rock hits earth" movies, it would be Judgement Day. However, there are a few actors who just do not fit the roles they are cast in. Yet the three primary actors are Ice-T, Suzi Amis, and Mario Van Peebles. Their roles are solid and convincing. There are about fifty dollars worth of special effects in the movie and, being a "big rock in space, hits earth" movie, that should tell you something. If you get this, do so for the story. The plot (with minor development) is by far excellent compared to any of the other movies of this genre. Average production, but interesting story The premise: A giant meteor is expected to crash into Earth in amatter of days -- a crash that would cause global devastation. Oneman can stop it: Dr. David Corbett, the creator of a Star Wars-esquemissile defense system. The feds aren't the only group looking forhim; militant religious cult leader Thomas Payne believes thatjudgment day is rightly upon us, and will do anything he can to keepCorbett from stopping the meteor. The government is forced to enlistthe help of Payne's arch-enemy Matthew Reese, a convicted killer, whois the only man who would know Payne's whereabouts. "JudgmentDay" puts a new and different spin on the whole "meteordestroying the Earth" story. Rather than concentrating ondestroying the meteor, the movie largely deals with finding the manwho can and stopping the man who would let the Earth be destroyed.For this, it gets three stars. The acting isn't the best, but itisn't the worst I've ever seen. Ice T is probably the worst of thebunch. Since I really don't remember how the rest did, I'm notawarding any stars for the acting. I don't remember it being too goodor bad though. In short, if you want to see a different spin on themeteor arc, check this film out; you might like it. This move is really judgment day For Ice T and Mario Van Pepples that is. Two of the worst actor to ever grace the screen star in a movie together and whatz worst hollywood is still givin this cats money to make more films what the f--- are they thinkin. If you want to rent a movie with a fine woman(Shireen Crutchfield) rent this movie if you want a good movie rent something else. Mos def!
