User Reviews
Yep, the name says it all. Deep Impact is a more realistic movie but the cast sucked and I just didn't like that movie at all. The only good part was when the asteroid hit the earth. Now Armageddon is one of the best movies I have ever seen. The cast in that movie is a lot better than Deep Impact. I mean, who doesn't like Bruce Willis? He played his part really well. He plays Harry Stamper, an oil driller who never fails to do his job and is chosen by NASA to drill a hole on the asteroid that's headed for earth and is known to end mankind. At the end his team succeeds and Harry stays behind to detonate the bomb. What really makes me love his character is that he sacrifices his life to save the earth. Now that is what you call brave. There's parts in the movie that are funny, romantic, sad and has action/thriller in it. That's what really makes a good movie when they try to put as many different genres in it possible to catch the audiences attention. All in all, Armageddon was a really well done movie and is one of my all time favs. The only thing I don't like about the movie is Ben Affleck. He's a horrible actor and he ruins the movie.

Giant asteroid is heading for Earth, hell bent on destroying the planet. What??! Better notify NASA. Since I guess maybe Superman, Ahnold, or the Ghostbusters weren't available, NASA has no choice but to call this motley crew of oil drilling experts... Full review

This a movie that touches all a person's emotions. Armageddon is inevitable and I felt that it captured all the seriousness that was required. Everything from the story to the acting was even above oscar-standard. It's the only movie that continually... Full review
