Product Description

The largest coronal mass emission (CME) ever detected by scientists breaks off from the sun and hurtles toward the Earth. With temperatures soaring higher, the sky on fire and the continued existence of the human race in question, scientists must explode the polar ice caps to stop the CME. Will it backfire or save life as we know it?

Solar attack4
I have always loved the actors in this movie and was NOT disappointed in the movie stars. The story line was just "okay" and I enjoyed watching it, but it will probably NOT be one of thos movies that I especially watch again and again. I am a REAL disaster or castrophe buff. Hit was okay but definately not great.

Sorry, I am not impressed.2
I may not be the biggest fan of disaster films, but this movie was even worse than most. The acting is very weak, and the story line is just too weak. I would have turned the movie off, if my husband wasn't one who watches any movie once. I laughed my way through most of it, and finally gave up to read a book. Though the story idea may be a good one and the actors chosen have done great work, this movie was a major let down. The time would be better spent reading. I hope the book was better.

An honest "B" disaster movie3
The real problem is not sets, special effects or acting:
it is the plot science is just bad to really nonexistent!
These two points are just both false:
1) solar flares of coherent plasma
2) methane enough to combine with all the atmospheric oxygen
Other than that the submarine warfare was pretty good.
Blowing up the polar ice caps with nuclear missiles is
just a really bad idea, too.
It came real close to being a comedy
and would have been if the acting would have been worse than it was.
It isn't in the class of "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes",
but just barely!
