    • Trivia
      James Cromwell previously starred in another film about an object colliding with Earth, Deep Impact (1998). Cromwell however only had one scene in that film, his part is more featured in this two-part series.
    • Goofs
      There are several scenes, particularly at the start of the movie that ignore the fact that the world has multiple time zones. It's not night everywhere.

    Aw come on, it's just a fun & entertaining movie with a unique twist

    Let's face it folks this is a low budget made for TV flick. I'm looking for entertainment and the premise of the moon hitting the earth is a spell-binding one.

    It's also Sci-Fi so it's fine to stretch the facts. I'm a professional writer and will admit I'm a bit surprised there wasn't more research on the "real physics." A few hours with a Cal-Tech Professor would have cleared that up, especially regarding Kepler's Law and the difference between magnetism & gravity. But really who cares! If you want to know astrophysics, take a course at your local community college!

    Anyway the movie is well paced and edited. Every scene advances the story line nicely. I didn't have time to pick apart details. CGI can be weak, but it gets the story told. Can you say the words, "LOW BUDGET." Despite "Impact's" fours hours the film never lost my attention. That's my definition of a "good, OK, film." I include the "sleepy factor" in rating pictures and I was wide awake for all 240 minutes.

    Remember the Walt Disney quote, "The Plausible Impossible?" Sure fits here.
