Seriously, I would not give this film the time (which I obviously have, hence this review lol) in terms of watching. It has been very badly made, very cheap and tacky, very poor acting and special effects are awful. As they say ' I'll give this a pass '......never a truer word said. This movie is diabolical trash. My expectations were, slightly, a little high for this movie, but after watching just 5 minutes of it, I knew then that it was very much a exceedingly low budget movie done, even for this trash of a movie, very much on a basis of ' quickly done with little thought ever being put into it '. I do not think there is 1 positive thing I can say about this movie.........lines and lines of negative appraisal most definitely. To conclude, give this movie a wide berth.

Oh dear, I was tricked AGAIN by the Asylum, their gambit of naming a movie with a title close to the name of a blockbuster worked and I downloaded this to watch

{thank god I didn't go to a theater to see this}

It bad on so many levels there is just nowhere to start:

This is simply bad on EVERY level: story, direction, script and acting

Sometimes the Asylum make movies SO bad they are actually good!

I can highly recommend 100 Million years BC by Asylum, it has the very worst of everything and I can guarantee you will watch it with your mouth open

It is a little gem of awfulness and very unintentionally funny

That was the last time I fell for their tricks, I feel deeply ashamed at being caught out again, but not as ashamed as they should feel producing absolute rubbish like this

It is {like every Asylum epic} quite literally a waste of the celluloid it was printed on and a very poor use of a plastic box and disc

Find something else to do with your hour and a bit, read a book, sit naked in a bath of baked beans, hit your friends over the head with baguettes but don't wast another second of your life on this piffle

After watching the first ten minutes I felt my brain was in agony so badly, that it was close to a seizure. Quickly I fast forwarded and... no, no,no NO! This movie should be labeled as harmful.

I voted "awful", but there should be a rating like "cheap rubbish" or "please make a law against this". So if you were lead to believe this movie is just "awful", that is only because the IMDb rating system doesn't offer an adequate description for the kind of movies The Asylum makes to fool consumers into thinking they are gonna watch something good while in stead it is simply cheap rubbish, meant do deceive you in to buying the DVD. Essentially, it is fraud. A hustle.

Though I must say, this movie - and others like this one from The Asylum's kitchen - yet have something to offer. To who'd like to count all the inconsistencies, faults, gaps, goofs and bad things, it would be pure joy to watch. Also, you could find joy in wondering WHY. Or simply laugh at all that is so wrong, it kinda gets good. But sadly The Asylum's movies are not that kind of wrong.

So unless you enjoy the pain of watching bad movies, or have OCD, you really do not want to waste your time and money on this. Or internet bandwidth. Be warned.

There is worse than Age of Tomorrow from The Asylum, but with Age of Tomorrow still being pretty poor stuff that is not saying very much. Granted Kelly Hu looks great still and brings charming command to her role and Robert Piccardo also tries his best and is the most involved actor in the cast(this said this is another of quite a few cases where Piccardo's material is beneath him). The locations are cool and quite pretty and the space-suits compared to the rest of the production values are decent at least. Age of Tomorrow on the whole is a cheap looking movie however, the driving sequences look like little more than haphazardly edited stock footage, the entire movie looks gloomy, the editing is bacon-slicer like and the special effects are never great or even good, the best of them are merely okay but most of them are awful. The music is basically loud sluggish-in-tempo noise played constantly, in the more dramatic parts you really do wish that they toned it down a bit. The script rarely makes sense with exposition parts that are ham-fisted and explanatory ones that is largely suggestive of the writers having no idea what they were talking about and how to deliver it. Any snappy moments are anything but and everything else is completely emotionally flat. The story is a disaster in itself, it starts off reasonably amusing, but much of it is unintentionally with all the goofs and what stuff the movie throws at you, but this gets tiring very quickly, here we're talking about less than half-an-hour in. None of the subplots are interesting, the main plot was a good idea that was let down by a complete lack of tension or fun and the threat not being that threatening at all while the trying-to-find-daughter subplot is where the movie starts to slow down and when it slows down it does so painfully. Plus it ends on a very anti-climatic note. The movie is erratically paced, the action has no life and looks under-rehearsed, the direction shows little character or technical skill. With the cardboard and barely developed characters doing them no favours, with the exception of Hu and Piccardo, the acting is bad, some even looking and sounding like they were still trying to remember their lines which was laughable. Overall, for The Asylum Age of Tomorrow could have been worse but it is still poorly done and tiresome with a few things keeping it from being unwatchable. 3/10 Bethany Cox

From the acting, the dialogue, the plot and the laughable the SpecialFX (that look as though they were done at a cost of $189.00) this is quite possibly the worst film I have ever seen. There is nothing that redeems this movie on any level.

Was it made as a tax dodge? By people who think the public is even dumber than a box of rocks? By a middle school student with learning difficulties? By drunken porn producers looking to go mainstream? I don't know, but what I do know is that this is worse than anything I've seen in over 50 years of movie viewing.

Within the first 10 minutes you'll feel as though you've seen this movie before, or at least the movie plot it was based on. And that movie was a big-budget Hollywood dud!

Go watch some youtube videos of goats instead of this cinematic tour de garbage. Trust me, you'll thank me and be much better off.

I hardly know where to start telling you how this movie is so terrible. The acting if you can call it that was mostly appalling. The script appeared determined to use every cliché stolen from any action movie the writers have ever seen. From "Is that all you've got" and "Blow the thing to hell" to "Let's do this" and the classic, "Go, go, go, go go." The story had more holes than a sieve but in case you are mad enough to want to see this I won't explain how. The CGI had it's moments but not nearly enough to make up for this poor excuse for a sci-fi movie and Robert Picardo didn't do to bad a job in his role as a general. Give this one a miss.

While "Age of Tomorrow" is not the most horrible of movies from The Asylum, then it is quite a far way from being top notch entertainment.

The story is about a massive meteor on collision course with Earth and the US military (of course) amass an expedition to send a small group of people out to blow up the meteor before it impacts with Earth (can you say "Armageddon" anyone?). But the meteor is not what it appears, and soon mankind finds itself in a battle for life and extinction.

Yep, that was basically it, and then throw in a few elements from "Starship Troopers" as well, and you essentially have "Age of Tomorrow".

The effects were actually adequate, and the aliens themselves were alright to look at. While the space-faring outfits of the people looked uncomfortable and like toy version, they were still on the right path with something interesting. If you have played the "UFO" games, then you will enjoy the outfits - just a shame that they didn't put more effort into making them more realistic and actually look like military-grade armor.

Story-wise, then "Age of Tomorrow" wasn't particularly impressive in any way. Everything was something that had been seen before in other Sci-Fi movies.

As for the acting, well, you know what you get here. And the only reason for me sitting down to watch the movie was because of Kelly Hu, but sadly her role wasn't a big one.

The movie's poster/cover makes it look a lot more interesting than the movie itself actually turned out to be.

There is very little to recommend in order to make you sit down and watch "Age of Tomorrow", so you might as well better spend your time, effort and money elsewhere.

I love a good science fiction B-Movie. Even some created by Asylum are pretty good. After reading the plot summery I decided to watch this movie. I was confused while watching at the plot summery had nothing to do with the movie. The movie had nothing to do with the sun, as far as I saw and nothing to do with an anthropologist or the pyramid of the moon. I honestly do not know what movie the plot given by Asylum actually belonged to, but it was not this on.

I wish I could get a job watching their movies and righting their plot summaries, at least they would belong to the correct movies. As for my review Decent movie with good actors not a great story and the ending was sadly anticlimactic. Still want to see the movie the plot belongs to LOL, although it sounds like one I have watched before...

Dear Joel Hodgson and Mike Nelson; the ultimate film makers for some new seasons of MST3K are finally here, just think, your very own bad movie making crew, introducing ASYLUM with THE WORST films to ever make it to any screen. It might be a bit overkill for the MST3K team and I wouldn't want to harm any robots in the viewing of these movies. I seen an appetizing movie, went to check it out first, and nearly laughed myself to death reading the reviews, come to find out it is a film from Asylum, I didn't want to ruin my fun by viewing the movie.

read the reviews, they are so much better than an Asylum movie, and I really gotta say, some of these reviews are just hysterical

Interesting in that it makes you think about why it was so bad and other films are so good. It seems to me that the screenplay was the main problem as it could have been a hilarious spoof with a good writer, in which case the amateurish production values, direction and photography would be largely irrelevant or even help it.

The best part was seeing Robert Picardo from Star Trek: Voyager where he did a great job as The Doctor, while the worst part was seeing him in such a poor film. Picardo had an unintentionally funny line: "We're being told, from the sheer size of it, on impact, nothing will live." I and my friend burst out laughing. How did he keep a straight face?

There are many bad movies and then there is this film. You can tell that some of the actors tried to justify their participation for themselves, whilst being in front of the camera. I wonder what the auditions must have been like...

The plot is riddled with holes and the main hero character has a nonsensical story arc to follow along the way. Dialogue is so bad it hurts!

Some of the costumes actually look halfway decent, given the low budget of the production. And while the location sets are not bad looking and set the tone for the action well, the production was simply lazy and did not prepare them at all. For instance there is a scene later in the film where the hero and his comrades first set foot on an alien world. While the scenery looks interesting and the trees and plants have all been made to look otherworldly by giving them weird colors in post production, the illusion only lasts for a few seconds at most. Why? Well, they forgot to remove the educational signs sticking out of the ground in front of every freaking plant they walk past. They obviously filmed this in a botanical garden of sorts and did not bother with hiding that fact at all. Incredible!

If this movie was actually entertaining to watch, I could recommend it at least for a few laughs on a rainy Sunday afternoon, but as it stands this is the worst pile of rubbish I have ever seen.

You have been warned!

worst science fiction ever.... eyes still hurt .. Bad play .. Bad acting ..

i hope for the sake of movie making that this film is shown how not to make a movie cant find one good reason why this is a good or interesting movie there are series with less budget who do a better job than this the end suggest there will be a follow up.... lets hope that never happens..

video 0 points sound 0 points acting 0 points

if aliens are going to attack earth lets hope we do a better job than this movie showed us...

hello everyone , go see this movie and please bring your friends and buy as much tickets as you can .

i am affiliated and hired by the company to review this movie as excellent. we know we used old scripts from older famous blockbusters , but we hope nobody will notice that. also we don't really care if we get busted for that . the money will still come in .

we are sorry that the actors couldn't do a better job. we know everyone was just lousy , but hey , they were in for a few hundreds bucks and a cup of coffee, and we filmed it all in one afternoon in my garage.

we had 1 million dollar budget to film this. you can bet we bought for ourself a Ferrari and a Maserati sports car from that money.

then we had a few hundred dollars left , we payed the actors a generous 5 dollars each. and hired some 14 year old school kids to do their first special effects job.

they used their Iphone3 to download cheap fire effects from Youtube tutorials for beginners. the audience would not be so smart to see the difference anyway, right ? the costumes we found it on a flea market for a dollar. but it worked great i think.

also we could not think how to end a plot , so we just randomly stopped somewhere during filming. who cares anyway ?

so everybody enjoy this movie and be thrilled for a coming sequel. although we don't have a budget for that anymore since we bought the cars. thank you for that.

and the name ? we were first ! so Tom Cruise stole it from us. now we go to court , and he will pay for this.

The other reviewers have pretty much covered how truly bad this one is. One other comment- in a film loaded with bad dialog this bit of unpleasantness:

Our firefighter hero- I'm going to save my daughter( from the evil death ray firing alien orbs- good grief is this Under the Dome)

Goofy firefighter buddy to another firefighter- She's not worth it, she's not that good looking

With this kind of comic relief-well draw your own conclusion

This one has just turned up on Netflix, so I guess it will draw a number of eyeballs- be warned

This movie has one of the most cliché scenarios, a strange mix of Armageddon and Independence Day, with added flavour from War of the Worlds, the Star Trek TV series, and influences from Michael Bay for visual effects. Looking at it, it's as if they stitched together scenes from different movies and painted the resulting tapestry with their "original" scenario. Some scenes seem blatantly plagiarized, the most striking example is a scene mimicking the one in LoTR where a Nazgul on the road smells the hobbits hiding under some roots. Moreover, there are so many moments that made me cringe, a few examples are: gravity inside the spaceship; Earth-like gravity on an asteroid; people talking normally to each other while they both wear full-face masks; and, as mentioned earlier, the so many clichés represented in the movie. In the end, the movie still succeeds in keeping your attention from start to finish, that is if you can stand being constantly reminded of other, more successful, movies, and all the other clichés and "cringe" moments in it.

I would imagine by now a lot of IMDb users have notice that The Asylum Movie Company since its inception in 1999 is almost completely a COPYCAT company producing movies at the expense of credible movies that were just produced and released with Asylum producing an almost exact reproduction of that major release at the same time. So if a movie sounds familiar check who is the "Company Credits" are just below "Details" guaranteed it was "The Asylum". Also you will notice that the rating of these movies are usually around 2 or 3 stars (maybe a 4 star but very rare), with very poor animation, week plots, very poor acting and a horrendous ending.

So unless you are really wanting to see a very bad movie and have a couple of hours just to waste in your life, stay away from The Asylum produced movies,(or just put your tomato plant or cat in front of the TV and let it vegetate and not you.) In fact if you did not know, none of their movies have ever released in a credible movie theatre, just straight to video.

I hope like a lot of IMDb subscribers, you do not support Asylum by buying or downloading such garbage. It only gives them more incentive to try to produce trash movies. I know there are also similar companies that have produced copycat movies but they generally are not total garbage like The Asylum's. "The Asylum" should apply for asylum and be granted refugee status in another country.........
