dmgreer I'm actually bumping up my vote from a 3 to a 4 because I want to watch again so I can catalog all the bad science in this movie.I didn't come in from the beginning, but apparently the world of Solar Attack doesn't have a national space agency or a military that has dozens of satellites in orbit capable of monitoring Earth's atmosphere, so a concerned billionaire launches his own manned orbital vehicle to fulfill this mission, at a cost of $98 million.So while his astronaut guy is up there, a huge CME of a size and mass never before seen comes in and destroys his spacecraft without warning, even though some scientists were aware that the CME was coming. Apparently in this world they have no means of warning people to stay out of space when huge fireballs from the Sun are about to hit Earth.Oh, and for some reason this massive interplanetary fireball which appears to explode over an area the size of China remains unseen by the rest of the world, so only the poor dead astronaut knows what happened to his ship.This may be because in this world, the ozone layer acts as a shield against these CMEs, so they never affect the the surface of the Earth, they only rain fire and destruction on above the ozone layer.Now these CMEs keep heading toward the Earth, and one of them is headed straight for THE Russian military satellite. Yes, they only have one, and it's stationary somewhere in space! For those who don't know, Russia and the US have satellites up there by the hundreds. Most of them orbit the Earth every 90 to 120 minutes, but there are some that orbit in 24 hours. But there are a LOT of them in that 24 hour orbit, so if one satellite up there gets hit, a LOT of them will get hit.Phew! And that's just from watching for for about 30 minutes! And I still haven't mentioned the ridiculous idea that methane has increased to 3% of the atmosphere and can be ignited by CMEs.

Earl J Moniz In the grand scheme of things, I'm such a fan of Joanne Kelly of late that her laughter is worth all the other scifi nonsense (it is scifi, after all) ... I normally use the TV as background noise (syfy or golf channels normally) ... so to hear her laugh brings a smile to my face as well. * * * The movie hosts a wild premise, no doubt; I may not recommend it to anyone not a Joanne Kelly fan, but then again, I let it run and didn't change the station while it played ... (grin) Louis Gossett, Jr. was an added bonus ... I'm a big fan of his as well. This movie isn't of Star Trek quality, but, then again, neither is it of the quality (or lack thereof) of Evolver or Solar Crisis... (wink)Until that time ... Earl J.

Keef isme This is a poor remake of Irwin Allens poor disaster movie Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea. All the same ingredients but done in a totally soulless way. The acting is so wooden it would not look out of place on Gerry Andersons Thunderbirds. I thought that they stopped making rubbish like this back in the 70's. Obviously not! IMDb says I must post at least 10 lines of text in this comment, but its difficult to type anything that is just not negative about this movie.Basically I just cant be bothered its not worth it! so! Rubbish! Rubbish! Rubbish!Waste of time!

tracy_enter I saw this last night and kept watching as there was nothing else on that was better. The premise of the movie was cool. Big solar storm ignites the atmosphere and has the potential of instantly wiping out life on Earth. However, the dialogue in the movie was horrible. The script was lacking emotion and intensity. The dialogue could have been so much better. The acting was alright given the bad dialogue. Louis Gosset, Jr. plays the president but has a small role in the movie overall. The score was horrible. The movie needed more intense music and more emotive dialogue. This movie lacked in intensity and would have benefited greatly from it. Unfortunately, the movie was pretty much on par with most small budget films made in Canada.
