DEEP IMPACT

USA 1998. Dir: Mimi Leder

A 14-year-old amateur astronomer discovers an unknown object in the sky, which reveals itself to be a giant comet hurtling toward Earth. Mankind has a few months to save itself. The suspenseful staging of the mission and the preparatory emergency measures on Earth make DEEP IMPACT a disaster film in a class of its own.
