A giant asteroid is about to collide with Earth and a group of scientists in Wyoming are the only ones who understand the situation and what to do about it. Luckily one of them is married to the janitor at the air force base so they have access to the entire world's arsenal of nuclear ballistic missiles.
Dialogue bordering on gibberish, continuity issues and "special" effects are highlights in this... series of scenes. Collision Earth also boasts a mercifully short runtime at 85 minutes.
Are there any redeeming qualities? For one, even if whoever wrote this story understood absolutely nothing about the science of meteorites or military protocol, they did figure out that boring conversations can be made more exciting by inserting the most shell explosions to appear in a feature length movie since All Quiet On the Western Front. Also, another stellar performance by Eric Roberts who is part of arguably the most baffling and clumsily executed death scene ever filmed.
While the film hits enough standards in mediocrity to lift it ever so slightly above sewer level, anyone looking for a "so bad it's good" experience will probably be disappointed. Collision Earth does not have that kind of charm.
