“Doomsday Meteor” (** out of four) was a minor-league action melodrama about a high-powered meteor that’s headed straight on a path of destruction to Earth and a group of scientists (Patrick Labyorteaux, Joseph Michael Harris, Anthony Jensen, and others) attempt to destroy it using high-powered lasers. Not bad and moves zippy enough but is just a chintzy rehash of “Deep Impact” and “Armageddon” and other large-scale disaster films. Visual effects aren’t bad given film’s limited budget but this is still overall pretty forgettable.
