Earth's last hope rests with a courageous crew of eight men and women on a mission to ignite the fading star with a massive nuclear weapon. Deep into their voyage, out of radio contact with Earth, their mission begins to unravel and they find themselves fighting not only for their lives, but for the future of us all.

My Thoughts:
I normally love a good natural disaster type movie. But this one not so much. Don't get me wrong... it isn't a bad movie. But it is my least favorite to memory at this time. I just found I didn't care much for any of the characters. I also felt that the story... especially in the beginning... moved a bit on the slow side. And it probably didn't help much that I wasn't really familiar with any of the cast other then Chris Evans. Though I do admit... I probably should give this one another chance as I didn't give it all the attention it deserved. It wasn't long into it before I found myself playing solitaire on the computer while watching it. But at the very least I got the main jist of the movie.


My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5

My Thoughts:

I enjoyed this one... it is basically more of the same of the first one. I liked the addition of Amelia Earhart,,, though I must say I didn't care much for Kahmunrah. There was just something that didn't seem right about the character, But over all I would say it is a fun watch that is worth the time put in to watch it.
