	Deep Impact (space mission) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Deep Impact is a NASA space probe designed to study the composition of the interior of the comet Tempel 1.
		At 5:52 UTC on July 4, 2005, one section of the Deep Impact probe successfully impacted the comet's nucleus, excavating debris from the interior of the nucleus.
		The comet is currently too dim to be seen with anything smaller than a large backyard telescope, but it was thought possible that the impact on 4 July could brighten the comet substantially, making it visible through binoculars toward the star Spica (visible even to the naked eye in areas with low light pollution).

	Deep Impact Movie Review by Anthony Leong
		The question that "Deep Impact" ponders on is 'what would you do if you knew the world was going to end in one year?', which is not unlike the question posed in "Titanic" and the grim nuclear holocaust tearjerker "On the Beach".
		Within the confines of a two-hour movie, the amount of screen time that can be devoted to each character and their conflict is reduced to a bare minimum, which restricts the ability for the audience to sympathize, or even 'fall in love' with them.
		The emotional resonance is diluted in "Deep Impact" because we are only given quick glimpses of each character at various times, and so when the 'great moment of self-sacrifice and epiphany' comes, the impact is not as resounding, and you are left with what amounts to contrived pathos.

	Kinnopio's Movie Reviews - Deep Impact (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Deep Impact, by far the more character-oriented tale of the two, loses a lot of the momentum it might've had by struggling through a muddled storyline; if anything, this cost it any chance it had to outdo Armageddon.
		Deep Impact is really three stories in one, all of them mostly independent but all of them connected by the common threat of the asteroid's imminent collision with Earth.
		For all its worth as an "event" movie, Deep Impact may be wide of the mark, and in two months' time, we'll hope for Armageddon to fill the void.

		The movie also presents a scenario that is riddled with abusrd scientific presumptions which would make the movie rather comical if it weren't so boring.
		DEEP IMPACT was Dreamworks entry in the comet wars against Disney's ARMAGEDDON.
		If there is a weakness in Deep Impact, it's Tea Leoni in the lead role, who seems a bit detached (dare I say, "stoned"?), although she does manage to help drive the plot along.

	Dan Heller's Movie Review: Deep Impact
		Deep Impact takes the high road, believing that people will act reasonably for the most part, aside from some disturbances, so that may affect your overall impression of the movie.
		In this case, he's the executive producer.) It would be easy to pass off their relationship as inconsequential to the movie's thrust, but the movie relies way too heavily on them for emotional effect, especially in the end when you're supposed weep for them, so you're left a little dry with these kids.
		While the team, as well as many superfluous characters in the movie come together well as they get closer and closer to danger and look death in the face, there are just too many and they dilute the humanity effect.

	Jesusfreakhideout.com "Deep Impact" Movie Review
		Deep Impact doesn't focus just on the youth, but focuses on the married as well.
		The worst case is when Leo becomes famous from the comet that at a school assembly, someone stands up & tells him, "You know, you're going to have sex a lot more than anyone else now." They present it jokingly, but it almost sounds like some kind of commercial for high school sex...
		So, in my book, the best part of the movie is the ending where the comet hits & there's lots of special effects and destruction.

		With Deep Impact, though, there are many characters vying for screen time and they are not given it.
		With Deep Impact, Leder shows us, as with Peacemaker, that she is very able to direct a large film.
		With Deep Impact, though, we see that what Leder needs is not a large cast of A-list players but a good solid script.

		DEEP IMPACT begins with the discovery of an earthbound comet by Leo Beiderman (Elijah Wood) during a school astronomy outing.
		DEEP IMPACT's moving moments are those with the least special effects.
		DEEP IMPACT should be able to satisfy a variety of audiences; from the most action-craving to those who just want to immerse into its manipulative but nonetheless dramatic premise.

	The BIG Picture Review: DEEP IMPACT (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Most folks were disappointed that DEEP IMPACT, the first of the two films released, had such a small serving of nifty effects, mayhem, and carnage.
		DEEP IMPACT had a lot of dough invested in fine actors, ARMAGEDDON had Brinks trucks of cash sunk into star Bruce Willis, and everything else around him.
		DEEP IMPACT failed because it toned down the pyrotechnics and effects to present us with a film that was more sober, more interested in character, and more concerned with the folks back on Earth grappling with the fact that the end is near.

	Review: Deep Impact (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The films in question, Mimi Leder's Deep Impact and Michael Bay's Armageddon, are separated by two months, so the first should have a chance to run its course before the second reaches the screen.
		In Titanic, which is essentially a disaster movie with a romance tacked on, James Cameron had the right idea: focus on a few, select individuals.
		As it is, the viewer sits patiently in his or her seat, enduring all sorts of perfunctory, "character building" moments while waiting for the special effects show to begin.

		Deep Impact would have some interesting science to it was marred by some early technical mistakes.

		Hehe, I have a t-shirt with that binary joke in your sig, as sad as it is to admit.
		Deep Impact makes so many horrible mistakes and yet still likes to pretend that it is serious drama, while Armageddon's innacuracies are presented in the 'hey, and if you think that is silly, wait until you see what Bruce Willis is about to do now!' attitude, where its all just too daft to worry.
		Deep Impact's seriousness implies that we are meant to believe they've taken their science seriously as well, which they clearly haven't.

	Cranky Critic® Movie Reviews: Deep Impact
		Inadvertently, she stumbles across the story of the century and Deep Impact takes a twist into the thriller genre as.
		Much too quickly, Deep Impact becomes a tale of who will live and who will die; of tearful partings and even more tearful refusals to PART; of deep space astronauts (led by Robert Duvall) bravely trying to blow the comet to smithereens.
		But someone along the line forgot that effects are what the summer audience pays for, not a lot of emotional situations, and Deep Impact is seriously out of balance when it comes to that.

		"Deep Impact" is the classic example of a movie that had everything going for it, and simply failed to gel.
		Over the course of the movie, Jenny mumbles in a soulless monotone, failing to display a single identifiable emotion, no matter what is going on around her.
		This movie has some deep flaws, but is worth watching if you have some empty time, or if you are a fan of some of the actors in it.

		At least, that was the attitude I took into the dodecaplex the other night when I went to see Deep Impact, the new disaster flick movie with Téa Leoni and Robert Duvall.
		But, this is a good movie, better than almost everything we had to choke down through Grey April.
		With The Lizard coming in a few weeks, Deep Impact will probably be forgotten when all is said and done, but, for now, it's a pretty cool way to see how we'd do against the latest version of Armageddon.

	Laramie Movie Scope: Deep Impact
		"Deep Impact" has some good characters and some very fine actors such as Morgan Freeman as a very believable US president, Robert Duvall as a savvy old astronaut on a mission to save humanity, and Vanessa Redgrave, Maximillian Schell and James Cromwell to name a few others.
		In fact, most comets are discovered by amateurs, and long before they become naked eye objects, as this one was when it was discovered by a high school student in the movie.
		Yes, it is a formula movie, but it did get to me. The effective speeches by Freeman, the heroism, the self-sacrifice and the love story did get to me and I got a lump in my throat.

		Richard Zanuck: Deep Impact was inspired by an old Paramount film called "When World Collide", although in the final analysis, there is hardly anything but the basic idea remaining from that older film.
