Deep Impact is a science fiction catastrophe film from the United States that was released in 1998. Mimi Leder directed the picture, which starred Robert Duvall, Téa Leoni, Elijah Wood, Vanessa Redgrave, Maximilian Schell, and Morgan Freeman and was written by Bruce Joel Rubin and Michael Tolkin. New York City was destroyed by a tremendous tsunami in the film and this scene before the climax. Spurgeon Tanner is played by Robert Duvall, Jenny Lerner is played by Tea Leoni, Robin Lerner is played by Vanessa Redgrave, Leo Biederman is played by Elijah Wood, and President Beck is played by Morgan Freeman. We learn early on in “Deep Impact” that a comet “the size of Mt. “Everest” is about to collide with the Earth.
There appear to be two conceivable outcomes: The comet hits Earth, destroying it, or the comet misses Earth, sparing humanity but denying the spectator access to several amazing effects. You don’t receive the requisite happy ending in the first scenario, and everyone feels duped in the second. Most apocalypse movies circumvent this dilemma by selecting catastrophes that are less than apocalyptic. A volcano, a tornado, or a tidal wave can deliver a slew of horrific special effects while yet leaving a large number of people trapped. But “Deep Impact” appears to back itself into a corner, which may explain why the producers enlisted the help of not one but two of Hollywood’s greatest writers: Bruce Joel Rubin (“Ghost”) and Michael Tolkin (“The Player”). They’ve figured out how to have their cake and eat it, too, by working together.

Explanation of the deep impact ending
What are their methods for accomplishing this? I would never reveal their source of inspiration, however, you might be able to find it out on your own. Meanwhile, you may enjoy the dialogue’s small bursts of wit, which help to brighten up what is, after all, a formula disaster film. What’s the recipe? As the disaster approaches, many typical individuals are presented, given personal concerns, and the plot alternates between them. I always believe it’s more intriguing if they know there’s a significant problem from the beginning; I’m bored of sequences where they’re blissfully unconscious of the disaster unfolding beneath their feet, above their heads, or everywhere.
The traditional opening per-catastrophe, in this case, a speeding semi that mops down a Jeep and kills the astronomer who is bearing news of the approaching comet, kicks off “Deep Impact.” (The Horse Whisperer, the other film I watched on the same day, opened with a runaway semi, and I can’t recall a single film in which a semi on a two-lane road didn’t careen out of control.) Then there’s the obligatory media smear; Tea Leoni portrays an MSNBC reporter who feels there’s more to the story of a cabinet official’s resignation than meets the eye.

“I realize you’re just a reporter, but you used to be a person,” he gets to remark when she accuses him of having an affair with a woman named “Ellie.” (The standard media retort is, “Look who’s talking!”) A member of the Cabinet!”) Soon after, she discovers her error: he’s retiring due to an E.L.E., which is jargon for “Extinction Level Event.” To spend more time with his family, he’s loaded a boat with dozens of cases of vitamin-rich Ensure. He must not have been invited to the briefing when it was revealed that the comet would wipe out all surface life or the briefing on the 1,000-foot-high tidal wave. My hunch is that the president didn’t want him in the Cabinet.
The president, played effectively by Morgan Freeman, goes on television to deliver the bad news to the rest of the world and talks about the Messiah Project, which involves sending a manned US-Russian spacecraft to deposit nuclear bombs in the comet and blow it out. We meet the Messiah team, including old Spurgeon Tanner (Robert Duvall), who has been summoned from retirement since he once landed on the moon and believes he can land on the comet.

We’re told that the younger crew members despise him, but we’re never told what’s going on onboard. “They’re not afraid of dying,” the veteran observes of the youths. They’re simply afraid of looking awful on television.” Another wonderful statement comes from the high school presentation, where the student who saw the comet (Elijah Wood) is honored. “You’re going to have a lot more sex starting now,” a pal says. Celebrities always get more sex.” “Look on the bright side,” one hero urges another late in the film, and I enjoyed that line. All of our secondary schools will be named after us.” However, the film as a whole is quite conventional.

Tea Leoni resents her father (Maximilian Schell) for divorcing her mother (Vanessa Redgrave) and marrying a bimbo, and while Redgrave gives her parts a wonderful sorrowful aspect, the rest of the subplot plays out suspiciously like a strategy to place two humans in front of a massive special effect. There are also several unconvincing scenes in which millions of people attempt to evacuate a city and are all locked in traffic, save for the two who are necessary by the plot to go somewhere quickly.
I’ll leave it up to you to decide whether Earth is rescued, doomed, or neither. It was simpler for me to believe that Earth could survive this doomsday scenario than that the Messiah spacecraft could travel at thousands of miles per hour through the comet’s tail, which includes pebbles the size of two-car garages, without causing major damage. On a disaster epic scale in which “Titanic” receives four stars and “Volcano” receives 1.5, “Deep Impact” receives 2.5 stars, the same as “Dante’s Peak,” despite the absence of a dog left behind.
