Oceans Rise. Cities Fall. Hope Survives.
Fourteen-year-old Leo Beiderman (Elijah Wood) did not expect to make an earth-shattering discovery when he joined his high school astronomy club. He didn't expect to make any discoveries at all; he simply hoped that classmate Sarah Hotchner (Leelee Sobieski) would discover him. Yet a photograph he takes through his small telescope makes him co-discoverer of Comet Wolf-Beiderman ... a comet that scientists determine is on a fatal collision course with the Earth.

Quite an impact! - 4 out of 5 (12/27/2000)
I have to admit that one of my biggest weaknesses is the disaster movie. I've never been sure what fascinated me about them. It might have been the monumental plot or it might have been the multiple storylines, but I have always loved the disaster films!
"Deep Impact" was one of these films, it was also one of those disaster films that got caught in the middle of the studio wars. Disney had already optioned for "Armageddon" and Paramount rushed this one into production to get it out first. It

Deep Impact (1998) - 3.875 out of 5 (12/17/1998)
The Movie:
Although not the top grossing doomsday movie this past summer, Deep Impact was still very successful. Does the movie deserve the success that it had? Keep reading to find out.
Deep Impact, a movie about comet on a collision course with Earth, was the first of two interstellar disaster films this year and I'll be honest I liked this one more. My reason is this, the movie had heart. It was a refreshing change to go see what was labeled a summer blockbuster and actua

Excellent movie. Blows Armageddon away - 3 out of 5 (6/16/2003)
Anyone who says Deep Impact is boring has got to have a heart of stone. Armageddon was entertaining, but was all flash, action, smart-ass characters, loud music, but not much substance.
Deep Impact tells the human side of the global-destruction story, while still giving us some technology and special effects with the attempt to destroy the asteroid/comet. Imagine being one of the few chosen to live, having to leave everyone and everything behind, knowing that the next time you stepped outsi

Deep Impact is the better Asteroid movie! - 4.25 out of 5 (5/29/1999)
Whether you like it or not, I love Deep Impact more than Armaggedon. While Armaggedon was more filled with special effects, it also suffered a ridiculous storyline and was unmoving. Deep Impact, on the other hand, is a disaster movie with the heart and the human drama is explicitly integrated into the separate stories intricately wovened by Mimi Leder. The tidal wave at the end is simply awesome and it wrecks all in its path and depicts the horror of the asteroid impact. Ultimately, the movi

Good transfer, but this is no "Armageddon". - 3.25 out of 5 (5/25/1999)
1997 was known for releasing two volcano movies around the same time, "Dante's Peak" and "Volcano", while 1998 will be known for releasing for two disaster films, "Deep Impact" and "Armageddon". Both movies were released in the summer time and were about asteroids that were headed for the earth. "Deep Impact" was the first one that was released, and for me, it's easy for me to label this one as the least impressive one of the two.
Let me first explain why this film doesn't work. It mostly has
