Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Extremely entertaining. Yet somewhat unbelievable.
Review: But who goes to the movies to be educated or see reality. Movies are supposed to be flights of fancy or merely entertaining at times. I found my self laughing out loud at times even though the plot is very predictable.

But great action, lotsa laughs and even some intense drama. Well worth the price of admission.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A Waste of Film
Review: It's a great title for a movie, but sad to say the story is not there. The plot simply becomes ridiculous and maybe they should have thought about some editing. It runs too long. Liv Tyler is funny in this movie, unfortunately she didn't intend to be. If you like special effects then go with it. It's a popcorn movie, but the world in not any better for this film having been made.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Is there anything Bruce can't do?
Review: Armageddon is a great action flick from modern day master of action Michael Bay(Bad Boys, The Rock). The film is fast paced, with great camera shots, grade A effects, great sound and a great cast( what more do u want to show off you DVD player). The story is basically about some deep sea drillers(Bruce Williis and Co), who are sent into space and needed to drill an impact threating Texas-sized meteor, so a nuculear bomb can be inserted to destory it. Its much better than Deep Impact which has a simular story line, and watchable again and again. The story may be unrealistic, but who cares it an enjoyable movie with Bruce Willis and Co.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: loved it too!
Review: Wow! This film is so good. Near the ending where Bruce Willis dies, just rips out your heart! It was so sad. The rest of the crew just made you laugh. Also the storyline was quite realistic and the stunts were excellent. With Ben Affleck in it too, it made the perfect girls-night-in film!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: one of the worst movies of 1998
Review: Terrible acting, directing, and script. Everybody in this "movie" overacts terribly.The "emotional" scenes are so terribly overdone (with terrible dialogue) that it's hard to watch - just like the rest of the movie. This movie will give you a headache, not just because of the terrible performances and script but the camerawork - it's constantly moving! Almost all the cuts last only a few seconds at best! This movie is more stupid and meaningless than most action movies, mostly because it tries to fool the audience into thinking there is more there than there actually is - absolutely nothing! "Armageddon" is a movie to be hated with immense passion.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Loved it
Review: The movie is amazing, the effects, the storyline and the ending. Surround sound makes it even better.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: more noise! more action! more more more
Review: after having watched this movie 100 times at least at work i can say that it is one of the worst movies ever made, which is sad because up until they go into space i find it fairly amusing. Unfortunately it turns into a big loud mess with the last hour being so ridiculous you cant hear any dialgue, etc etc. It doesnt get much worse than Ben Affleck telling Bruce Willis he loves him

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: below one star actually
Review: this flick is a total waste of money.actually,i think YOU should get paid to watch it! i cant sit through this movie.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Rednecks in Space...Or, Good Ol' Boys Vs. The Apocolypse!
Review: If you're looking for a sensitive, thoughtful look at humanity facing doomsday, buy 'On the Beach'. If, however, you want to crack a beer, scratch your belly, and hoot and holler, 'Armagedden' is for you!

Bruce Willis, more subdued than usual, leads a band of oil-drilling stereotyped misfits into space to blow up an asteroid on a collision course with Earth. His crew includes a young brash stud (Ben Affleck, proving he quit drama class too soon!) in love with his daughter (Liv Tyler, who must have skipped a LOT of acting classes!), and a wise-cracking psycho (Steve Buscemi, who looks like he spent too much time outside the spacecraft without a spacesuit!)

Heading the support team in Houston is Billy Bob Thornton, who gives the best overall performance in the film, and seems to be enjoying himself immensely in the role!

Don't THINK while watching this, or you'll get in trouble (I loved how NASA has size 50XXXL spacesuits on hand for a couple of the beefier drillers!); just run with it, and enjoy the movie for the spectacle it is! Unlike 'Deep Impact', it doesn't bog itself down in subplots...This is the Wild West in Space, with enough rootin'-tootin' action to fill a dozen Saturday matinees!

Enjoy the show!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: great story and very funny!
Review: I think this movie was so good. I cried so much at the end. Everyone has to see this movie It has so many different things about it like how Bruce willis doesnt want his daughter liv tyler dating, and how she is in love with his employee, Ben Affleck. Then there is all the different characters who are so very different but blend together so well kind of like a puzzle. But this movie is a sad one so be prepared
