Review of Judgment Day

Judgment Day (1999 Video)
Not good, fun at times
14 August 2004
Warning: Spoilers
(slight spoilers) Judgment Day is not a memorable movie. I like Ice-T, the cult leader is also convincing, the rest of the actors are passable. The well-worn plot (meteor wooshing toward earth, 4 days to rescue the planet, idiots trying to prevent this) offers no surprises, the characters are cardboard, the special effects sparse and not very special. The plot is rather unlikely; apparently an isolated cult leader has information about this meteor before anyone with the exception of the US government (of course); a laid-off scientist is needed in person to turn some switch to launch a totally untested weapon of mass destruction from an abandoned project. Even for an action/disaster movie it is weak. Still some nice action....4/10
