Directed by Michael Su, this The Asylum picture has a strange yet riveting concept – intergalactic conflicts due to misinterpretation of Earth’s culture – and given the premise ‘2025 Armageddon‘ seems appealing in an interesting way. Michael Su’s another production can turn out to be a nostalgic wig flick because it is filled with humor and a variety of sci-fi images all while being a spectacle for a grander sci-fi narrative. The film celebrates over-the-top satire-filled sci-fi narratives along with silly yet dangerous sequences, giant monsters and the ability of mankind to endure unwavering challenges.

Synopsis:
‘2025 Armageddon’ provides a gripping scenario: unbiased and fulfilling in its promise of visuals, it begins with a lengthy prologue of sorts, setting the backdrop of an alien6887888888888 invasion for further context, and instantly captures the audience’s attention and ultinately races alongside the story through historical apocalypses, ranging from ciavians assassinated to dinosaurs decimated – with the common denominator being the ironic portrayal, as B movies tend to do, of every threat ever posed to the earth.
The sisters Madolyn and Quinn provide the perfect subplot as the earth on the assumption of b-movies is under invasion, the two sisters with very different personas clash everytime, however they seem to take solace within the fact that the earth itsel got decimated due to the top german, russion and military strategists , hence now the two are in charge of counteroffensive operations. Nevertheless, the two sisters are ion all likelyhood bold enough to formulate the plan of commandeering an alien cahthear which will allow them to defeat the aliens easily and as such, their plan is to further dhstablise the aliens by exposing them to b movie magic and counter their threat.
As such in contrast to clashes of humanity dominated by heros, explosions or inters, builds solves calamities as writtern along the entire story.
The film rather enjoys itself on its epic proportions, serving a smorgasbord of colossal wars and rage of the monsters. There are Easter eggs and multiple callbacks from other films for the fans of cult classics and The Asylum.
