It's no Deep Impact, but it's a well written film

Great Storyline, Poor Screenplay

In 2051, Earth is completely depleted and exploring its resources in asteroids by ISA Corporation, while ecologists and eco-terrorists commanded by Lopez (Christian Vidosa) are against the procedure. First officer Daryl Boden (Michael Paré) of a mining spaceship is divorcing his wife Marilyn Boden (Heidi von Palleske), who is a former agent. He is working for a long period steering the asteroid MT-27 through explosions into Earth orbit, with the support of Engineer Rene Lessard (Zerha Leverman) and the crew, for ISA. When Captain Jimmy Rice (Morris Durante) orders a risky maneuver to comply with their schedule, Boden has a friction with him. Soon the crewmembers die one by one in strange accidents, and Boden suspects that one of the survivors might be a terrorist. Meanwhile Marilyn is kidnapped by Lopez, who discloses that he has an infiltrated mole on board of the starship to steer MT-27 to crash on Earth and destroy mankind to cleanse the planet."Falling Fire" is a Canadian-American sci-fi release on VHS in Brazil in the 90's. The complex storyline is great, but the screenplay is poor and the direction is slow-paced. This film deserved a better screenplay and edition, since the concept is excellent. My vote is five.Title (Brazil): "Chuvas de Fogo" ("Rains of Fire")
