This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Blistering performances.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

I stumbled on this movie after SportsCenter. It was on FX, so I stayed a few minutes. The cast was full of recognizable faces, including Ice-T and Mario Van Peebles, the king of B-Movies.This was definitely a B-Movie.I called up IMDb to figure out who the director was and he is an actor/director. That was obvious from the movie.The plot was predictable and it was a combo of David Koresh and Armageddon, filmed on a low budget. The movie was enjoyable and Ice-T's grimace always gives me a smile, along with his silly bad-ass lines.I don't know why Suzy Amis is attempting to act any more, since she's married to James Cameron-Titanic. She can do whatever she wants.Plenty of the actors give you the 'I know that dude' feeling. I saw a guy from the Young and Restless, another was a character actor in every military movie.Judgment Day was released in 1999, so it was probably filmed in 1998, when the Armageddon themed movies were still a hot commodity. That's the likely reason this movie was made. Still, it's an OK watch, though I did vacuum the carpet during the movie and didn't seem to miss anything.Any movie that somehow brings Chicken and Waffles into the script can't be all bad.This is definitely a late night movie watch.(Like 90% of the actors that made it big in the 1985-1992 area, Suzy Amis appeared in a bad Miami Vice episode-Heart of Darkness. It's terrible that I just saw this on TV as I was writing this review.)

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

This Direct to video nonsense, features Boring performances, Awful special effects and Laughable screenplay and lots of boring action, surely one of the worst movies since Fair Game Not a good movie to rent.
