Comet Impact - killer from space (Original title: Impact Earth ) is a British TV - disaster movie from director Keith Boak from 2007. The premiere in Germany was on 2 January 2008 on ProSieben. On January 17, 2008, the film was also released on DVD.

action

A comet crashes into the sea off Ireland without warning and causes a huge tsunami. As a result, NASA experts make a terrible discovery: the comet was only part of a much larger asteroid heading for the northwestern United States. If nothing happens, it will hit the earth with the force of six million Hiroshima bombs. The US military wants to stop the comet with atomic bombs, but researcher Josh Hayden has doubts about the effectiveness of the plan.

criticism

The lexicon of the international film was successful, the "docu-drama plays out the catastrophe scenario on the basis of scientific findings, shows the suspected reactions to the collision and asks whether the earth could withstand such an impact". The cinema magazine Cinema said that the film only offers “moderate effects”, but is “still exciting”.
