Notes

My quick rating - 7,1/10. Ok, sort of a spoiler. Not of this movie, but the movie that this movie screams a comparison to, "Armageddon" I personally loved that movie, the sheer unbelievable nature of landing on an asteroid and blowing off a nuclear weapon to split it in two, saving the earth from being struck. Still a great movie, especially for a popcorn flick. Now we have a movie that makes the absolutely crazy idea of "Armageddon" seem like a simple addition problem. Taking the entire planet, strapping it with thrust engines, and relocating the Earth into another solar system. Sure, this little project will take about 3000 years, but lets get rolling. The entire amount of disbelief you have to check at the door for this movie is astounding. Yet, the movie pulls it off, in an almost believable fashion. Everything in the plan is described down to a tee. Not that it is even plausible, but who cares, turn the planet into a slow moving bus across the galaxy using up every mineral currently on the planet to take a billion person bus ride. The movie looks spectacular, that is for sure. A great deal of attention was placed on the landscape of the planet since of course about 17 years into the trip, a huge problem arises, passing up Jupiter and not getting sucked in by its gravity. Insert that gang of misfits, including the son on planet Earth, the father on the guidance space station that leads the way, and the group along for the ride to assist in the impossible task of surviving AND getting the planet back on course. Sound familiar? The parallels between the two movies are huge, but that does not make it any less entertaining. Even the dubbing was not all that bad nor distracting. Definitely a worthwile watch especially for sci fi fans. And if you have seen the previously mentioned movie, and are reading this, you know exactly how it is going to end. But don't let that spoil it for you nor the people who cannot be entertained by a completely impossible idea in a movie and give this poor reviews because of the "that can't happen" factor. This whole movie are moments of things that just can't happen.
