I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

It was very hard to sit and view this film, but I decided to see what this Judgement Day film was all about. Poor Ice-T,"Up in Harlem",'04, has to make a living and had no choice but play the role of Matthew Reese, a convict who is given a second chance by Suzy Amis,(Jeanine Tyrell),"Firestorm",'98 who played the role of an FBI Agent. Suzy had no make up, looked very bad in close ups and wore her hair in a pig tail and appeared skinny as a bean pole through out the entire picture; I forgot, she did let her hair down, but not for sex. There was lots of quotations from the Bible, and especially the Book of Revelations, where the earth is suppose to be set on fire and the end of the world occurs. Lots of time wasted on talking about eating in a food joint called the Chicken & Waffles. The entire film was a big waste of time, but if you want to waste time, this is the film for you!

spoilers....now this was a great movie. forget armageddon and deep impact and those other crappy movies. you got a meteorite coming to earth, bigger than the one in armageddon i'll add, and there's only one way to destroy it, a special nuclear weapon made by a scientist. this scientist is the only one with the password to unlock it but there's a religious fanatic (mario van peebles) who feels it's god's will for the meteorite to destroy us all and he kidnaps the scientist, also shows tiny lister junior in a great role as the guard. you got this one female cop who's the best in the field and he gets a former criminal who she arrested out of jail for help to find the fanatic and than get the scientist to save the planet. i won't ruin it by telling the ending but this was such a good movie. the only thing that actually seemed out of place is the fact that the scientist is the only one who created such a powerful weapon and the only one with the key, he's such an important man yet he's just a college professor. but hey it'z all in good fun it's only one minor detail the movie was awesome

Ice-T stars as a federal prisoner that is doing a deed for the FBI, where a scientist is kidnapped by an extremist group, with Mario Van Peebles as the leader. An asteroid threatens the earth (a la Armageddon), and the top scientist is kidnapped, and hope lies with both Ice-T and Suzy Amis (Titanic) as an FBI agent.Ice-T might be portraying another stereotypical role as a convict, as well as the villain, like his previous films, but his vulgar overtones might sound like one of his rap songs. Check out a cameo by Coolio as a street hustler, and this film marks the third appearance of Tiny Lister (Trespass, Jackie Brown) with Ice-T.The scene where Amis cuffs Ice-T to the steering wheel of the car has been repeated several times, in films like Rush Hour. 48 HRS. was the first film to feature such a scene, and every fan of the film might view this scene as homage to a timeless classic.Why Mario Van Peebles as the black David Koresh? Ice-T might have lynched his ass in this film, since the two first met in New Jack City.
