How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

....is the last line that Dr Earl Hill/Frank Langella utters in this saga. And therein lies the best way to sum up this telemovie that is catastrophic, but for all the wrong reasons.Pity he didn't pay more attention to it when he read this thing & agreed to do it!Apparently, more lines are required to make this review valid! Really? What else is there to say? Not bad enough to be "so bad, it's good". Every clichéd piece of dialogue that has ever graced a bad telemovie, gathered together & trotted out one after the other. Is that enough now??!!!

In all honesty, I wasn't expecting all that much from 10.5: Apocalypse. Even then though you do expect for it to be somewhat watchable. Unfortunately 10.5: Apocalypse was completely unwatchable. Where to start? The visual side is a good place to start. As the constant zooming in and out style of the camera work made my eyes hurt, not a good thing as I have epilepsy. That way it made it difficult to appreciate the scenery or effects, neither of which were particularly brilliant either. The scenery is dully lit and the effects on the most part fake. The music is generic, while the dialogue is so cheesy and stilted that I couldn't stop cringing in the more dramatic scenes and the story is never exciting or suspenseful, instead it is predictable, riddled with scientific errors and the pace begs for a steroid shot. The characters are underdeveloped and stereotypical, and the actors cannot do anything with their characters or dialogue, no wonder, and most look embarrassed to even be participating, can't say I blame them. So overall, a disaster of a film. 1/10 Bethany Cox

I don't know if anything here is a spoiler or not, but I'll include the warning...just to be safe. But first, a different type of warning...a WARNING TO THOSE WHO MAY BE SUBJECT TO SEIZURES: DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE. (Sorry for the shouting.) The horrific camera work (the zoom lens on the camera was apparently stuck in an in/out/in/out/... mode, and they apparently didn't have the budget for another camera) is so bad that I've had to turn the TV off...I didn't get that warning feeling, but the headache was so bad I could easily imagine it being next...and this movie is NOT worth a Grand Mal seizure...trust me!Also, I only rated this a "1" out of 10 because there isn't a "0".Possible spoiler here....Wasn't Dr. Hill's (Kim Delaney) father mentioned as being DEAD in the original 10.5? Or am I thinking of another movie?

Just to add to the other comments, what happens to Amy's Secret Service men? One minute they're talking into their watches, next minute nowhere to be seen. And why on earth do both Dr Hills have to fly to the site of the explosion and give instructions to Army munitions guys about where to place the explosives? And, talking of Earth, where is the rest of it? If Accelerated Plate Movement is happening in the US, presumably it's happening around the world - but there's no mention at all - not even that the rift is also heading north to Canada - did anyone tell the Canadians? And, if the rest of the world isn't affected, surely the President would be receiving offers of help from somebody. To sum up, this film is far too long to enjoy as a disaster movie and it doesn't have anything else going for it. Too many plot lines (isn't anybody an orphan any more?), cheesy dialogue and the pseudo-artistic camera work. Kim Delaney is good value, as is Frank Langella, but I would have liked to have seen Randy Quaid in there somewhere and David Cubitt was killed off way too early (but that's just a personal preference on my part).
