I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.

One of those afternoon disaster films that is no way a big budget production, but relies on a story, a family, a town and the mayor of that town and what happens when meteorites threaten the whole region, focusing on this one town and what they have to deal with has the threats looms closer and closer. Throw corruption and criminals into the mix to add to the storyline; how will the town get out of the impending disaster? Not a big Hollywood production by far, but good enough to watch.It's nice to see Tom Wopat and Roxanne Hart, but this is because it's a film from the 1990s. As I watched this film in 2015 (17 years on) it didn't seem out of date, which was a plus.

I thought I had seen some stupid movies in my time but this one is the champ! Does the writer of this piece of crap understand that the world turns? How could dozens of meteorites all land in the same place? And always just before the good guys are about to make it to safety? And how is it that everyone manages to survive all these close quarter explosions? Ever hear of the Tunguska Event? A single meteor the size of a volleyball would go off like a nuclear bomb and flatten everything for miles around.The mayor is a particularly stupid character. He has no coherent reasons for doing anything he does except that he has the personality of a 14 year old boy obsessed with oneupmanship.All in all a total stinker. The biggest mystery of all is how crap like this ever gets produced.

I have an uncle who works at a large newspaper. By having that job, he and his colleagues are entitled free movies that the movie reviewers are done with. Unfortunately, my uncle is not high up in the "free movie giveaway"-chain.As a result, our summer cottage is filled to the brim with crappy movies, such as "The adventures of Captain Zoom" and "Ivory Hunters". At first, I couldn't find Meteorites here on IMDb(Gasp!) but today I stumbled upon it. Oh bliss!The basic plot of this movie is this: A small town in Arizona gets bombed by meteorites. Although the rest of the world is affected too, we never get to see any of it.The characters are all hate-able, and I found myself wanting them to get killed. There are the usual elements; stupid authorities not listening to the sole guy who has a clue, stupid teenagers doing illogical and stupid things, stupid and annoying people not dying.The movie is so boring, I'm surprised I managed to watch it. Anyhow, nothing special is done to stop the meteorite shower, people just hide in a cave, and then it's all over. Bleh. The final scene is the worst. The happy core family(I can't remember if they had a dog or not) are gathered outside their new house. Suddenly, the see something in the sky! A final meteorite to wipe them out? Of course not. It's just an airplane, and they laugh happily. I hate this movie.

Nothing outstanding or out of the ordinary about this TV movie. A small Arizona town is celebrating its annual UFO Festival, when Mother Nature provides a fiery display. Comets collide in space shooting meteorites toward earth. My favorite line in the whole movie is, "I treated that truck better than my ex-wife". The effects are pretty low tech. And the acting is predictable and flat. Cast members include:Tom Wopat, Roxanne Hart, Abby Meares and Mark Murphy.
