Film Quips Online (John R. McEwen)
Overall, Deep Impact is like Titanic : it's not perfect, but it's still a darn good show. ...read the complete Deep Impact movie review at Film Quips Online (John R. McEwen)

The year 1998 was the year of the planet smashers. On one end of the film spectrum was the ultra silly Armageddon, a film centered on the idea that throwing in pointless explosions will make up for the weakness of script and characterization. On the ...read the complete Deep Impact movie review at MovieFreak.com (Jon Bjorling)

It must be tough in Hollywood, a real creative struggle. Summer's on the way and that means only one thing; "event" movies. Every year the stakes ride higher, a poker game of budgets, effects and overwhelming action. The trick is to top the long list of ...read the complete Deep Impact movie review at Movie Reviews UK
Nick's Flick Picks (Nick Davis)
Perhaps because the arrival of the comet is so different from what Leoni's Jenny actually thinks she
is uncovering, there is a true and terrible shock at the news of what the film is going to show us.
Humanity (albeit of a homogenized Hollywood ...read the complete Deep Impact movie review at Nick's Flick Picks (Nick Davis)
DVD Talk (Chuck Arrington)
I love space movies, so anything that has man venturing heavenward has my attention. This doesn't always end in a good viewing experience but I can still hope can't I! In any event, Deep Impact is a colossal film in every proportion. It totally immerses ...read the complete Deep Impact movie review at DVD Talk (Chuck Arrington)

Director Mimi Leder ('The Peacemaker') and writer Bruce Joel Rubin ('Ghost', 'Jacob's Ladder', 'My Life',) along with fellow writer Michael Tolkin ('The Player'), have crafted a very special film that seems disjointed at first but later becomes a truly ...read the complete Deep Impact movie review at Walter Frith

I have recently purchased the Blu-Ray version of Deep Impact and i just have to say that the transfer to Blu-Ray is very very good. Great! The picture is crystal clear and the special effects are even better. I had the dvd and decided to purchase it on ...

Deeply affecting, life-affirming movie embellished by James Horner's quiet and evocative, lush and legato score. What movies used to promise, rather than the hateful, manipulative projects now so common. ...

I feel as if I may have watched a different movie, or at least a different cut, from what some other Amazon Reviewers watched. With the exception of Robert Duvall driving his ship into the tail of the comet where there's enough space debris to scare off ...

Deep Impact is way WAY better than Armageddon. The writing is better. The acting is better. It is smarter, more real, more thoughtful, more effective. ...

Basically the plot is about 2 meteors that are about to strike earth. Everyone panics. I especially enjoyed watching this movie. I have seen both Deep Impact and Armaggedon. I can honestly say that Deep Impact is much better than Armaggedon. Armaggedon ...

I read what David Chute had to say and he is almost completely wrong. The movie was great with remarkably developed characters, superb dialogue, and terrific acting. Robert Duvall gives a 5 star performance and the movie is certain to be one of your top ...

We are very pleased. Great packaging and it arrived within stated time. This is such an awesome movie! I have watched it several times and certainly will watch it more. ...

Deep Impact DVD
Robert Duvall and Tea Leoni in a movie about a comet on a collision path with the Earth. An ambitious reporter is investigating what she thinks is a Washington sex scandal when she accidently discovers that E.L.E. is not a girl's name. ...

I realize that I am a few years late in offering this review. But, I still enjoy this movie very much. When it first came out at the cinemas, I saw it 4 or 5 times, which is probably a record for me.
Why did I love this movie? Perhaps the main reason ...
