Armageddon (1998)

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

This is what a call a perfect history that something that may happen in future. Very realistic movie, excellent cast, lot of action, amazing ending . One of the best movie I ever watched in my life

There is entirely no point in listing the plausibility holes in this production. One might as well protest the impossibility of Superman defying gravity, or wearing his red underpants over his blue tights. This film is obviously not about the technicalities of travelling the solar system, astronaut training, the practical applications of nuclear power, intercultural fraternisation in outer space, or similar topics.Instead, it seems to be about team spirit, meeting challenges, family values, doing the right thing, handing the torch on down the generations, self-sacrifice, and the built-in dumbness of corporate suits. Corny and as old-fashioned as anyone might wish, but I found it entertaining, and even enjoyable. I've seen Billy Bob in a number of films now and find it curious how he manages to be different, yet the same, in all of them. Interesting to note which members of the squad were disposable.

Armageddon is a Deep Impact-like movie where an asteroid is discovered to be on a collision course with Earth after a meteor shower destroys a space shuttle and hits New York City. The asteroid is big enough that if it hits Earth, it will kill all life. Oil rig drillers are asked to fly to the asteroid and drill a hole in it and plant a bomb to blow it up. They blow it into two pieces which don't hit the Earth. This is a great movie in that the special effects are very good and it's very fun and intense. It opens with a depiction of an impact that is thought to have killed the dinosaurs and a narrator commenting on that. One of the top few best scenes and maybe the best scene is where Paris is hit by a meteorite and is destroyed in a huge explosion.
