SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

daleof This movie is so awful, it should be deemed a crime against humanity. Seriously, If I had an option to A: Watch this movie or B: Sprinkle weaponized anthrax on my pancakes, I'd be in a rush to griddle up my pancakes. The movie plot is so stupid, it's insulting.

elrelr REALLY GOOD START, BUT WHERE'S THE ENDING??? Good plot to start, good actors, good acting. Problem is, at the end of the movie I felt as though I'd seen the first quarter of the show and had been cheated out of seeing the last 3 quarters of it. WHY would they take a viewer through all that turmoil just to end it flat at the moment the planet (and it's occupants) were going to start the REAL adventure - creating a new world out of the ruins of the old one. I just CAN NOT understand why they stopped only 1 quarter of the way in. There doesn't seem to be a follow-up movie or a series coming off it. This movie could have continued with so many additional plots; the military setting up a base and people living there, while people who had survived without the military set up small communities all over the globe (working their way out from the area that people were still alive in). It wouldn't have to be every community fighting every other community, either. Why not every community working to help each other and reinstate commerce with each other. There could be a farming community trading goods with a mining community and a crafting community trading goods with both of those, and on and on. Runners as mail carriers. Traveling tutors for the kids, traveling medical units from the medical community, kids sent to craftsmen, hospitals, farms, libraries, etc., to live in their teen years in order to learn a trade (since the colleges would probably no longer be viable, right?) and on and on. Sooooo much more could have come from this movie than just another "shoot-em- up-bang-bang" debacle.

quincytheodore For a movie with such grandeur title, Earthfall is more like a local neighborhood watch or mall cops running around in random field. It has incredibly poor acting, silly attempt to create drama and expected low quality effect. This is actually one of the worst films that seem far longer than it is, I could've sworn that it had been going for two or three hours.Story is unsurprisingly mundane, there's a planet out of orbit or the sort. The science is explained over zealously and barely makes sense even for B-movie standard. The other main plot is the two leads, both of whom trying to channel Matthew McConaughey, one from his romance comedy days and one from new serious roles. Needless to say, mentioning Matthew McConaughey is already an undeserving praise for them.At least in other similar movies, both quality and genre, there are signs of catastrophe, such as a small town in panic or a bunch of people stuck in traffic. This movie almost exclusively transpires in deserted field with people trying to pass off as scientist or military. Furthermore, its attempt to vilify authority just seems timid and merely serves as padding while the supposed survivors are like random extras from The Walking Dead arguing with each other.Earthfall is not even good for lazy popcorn flick.

hateredblast Did you know that asteroid shards plummet towards the earth at a constant velocity of 15km/h? Did you know that dust from a small impact can kill you for no apparent reason? Did you know that hackers like giving away random vital information? Well... NOW YOU DO!This movie is just a waste of resources! I wasn't expecting much anyway, but damn... thats so weak! The actors are OK, the script is garbage, the excitement is none! The effects are cheap, unrealistic and lack basic understanding of physics! Even the props are mediocre! The movie should not exist!2/10
