Perhaps I'm not being fair to this piece of crap, but really, blowing up the planet is getting old. Sure they tacked on a different explanation and change the faces but the movie might as well be a clone of every other disaster movie. If you like things blowing up in spectacular fashion then you might be OK, if you want anything else from your movie, do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. I'm also curious just how many near-misses and lucky coincidences I can reasonably be expected to buy in a 2 1/2 hour film (we couldn't have sped up the destruction of the planet just a tiny bit?). As far as physics goes....well light still seemed to work like it's supposed to, but other things, like inertia and gravity, seemed to have been turned off for this film. Sometimes disaster movies are actually watchable and even enjoyable, this film was neither. Dear Hollywood, stop blowing up the Earth and go back to burning skyscrapers, capsized ships, and tornadoes for more meaningful and believable disaster films, Love Gary.
