Watched this last night. Kind of a unique concept (and too real no matter how remote).

Synopsis: life ending asteroid hits earth directly opposite Perth, Australia. Ensuing fireball, which ends all life, is 12 hours from Perth. Nothing can stop it, Europe and north America are gone.

Anyone else see this?







Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Watching it now on Netflix after seeing your thread. Some pretty decent Australian T&A in it so far, I must say.

It does make me think about what I'd want to do with the last 12 hours of my life having just suddenly learned about humanity's fate. I know one thing for certain, I wouldn't want to spend it getting hammered and commiting all acts of debauchery. This movie made me realize that I'd rather spend it giving love and being loved.

Watched it a while back as well. Interesting movie.
Interesting concept. You KNOW it's coming, and when....Now, what're you gonna do with that time?

Hadn't seen it, but that sounds a lot like On The Beach from 1959.

Kind of what i was thinking in afterthought.

I just finished it. Thought provoking is about all I have say about it. At least there will be no sequel.
