Rating: 4 stars
Summary: come on...
Review: What? you mean you took this seriously? the movie is pure eye candy and fun. But the reason it gets 4 stars from me...the DVD Criterion Edition is amazing. Every Ad, to the intricate details of the special effects. Good carnage...great extras

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Armageddon
Review: O.k. movie, with an non-believable plot and silly premise, but the special effects are absolutely staggering. I pumped this movie through a Dolby Digital, six speaker surround system and this was the only saving grace. I gave it 3 stars simply for the FX.

P.S. Steve and Liv Tyler REALLY do look alike.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Can't you people see it's just fun
Review: What is all these peoples problem with this movie. OK, it's not a great piece of cinema. It's daft, unbelievable, completely over the top, and far too ridiculously "Yeah! Go America!" that you cannot take this film seriously. But all these people reviewing seem to. Why? It's just brain dead fun.

The idea is, watch it, don't think and just go "cool special effects". I mean, how can you take a film seriously which has the line "He's got space dementia". Sort it out and see the funny side of movies like this. Al pizzazz, no brain, but fun!

Oh, and why has no-one else mentioned the brilliance of Steve Buscemi in this.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A Great Movie with an interesting look at the making.
Review: I enjoyed this movie. The original movie was spectacular. If you are thinking of buying this movie for added footage you may want just to buy the normal DVD, but if you want an indepth look on the creation on this movie get this. It has a great gag real and commentary.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I put one star because the computer forced me to! (revision)
Review: I must revise my review. It still get's ZERO STARS from me, or those of my ilk. But to say that this is the worst movie ever made would possibly lend it credence to some of you dullards out there. This 'movie', as some are keen to call it, still ranks as one of the best examples of how bad hollywood has gotten over the past 2 decades, and how trully imbred the American public has become, at the hands of the hacks that have permiated the movie industry. If your IQ is less than the number of fingers I am holding up, (I am holding up 3 fingers), then you probably love this movie. That is all.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Crow...Tom Servo...Where are you?
Review: If only Mystery Science Theater 3000 was still being made. I beleive I would actually be willing to sit through it again. On par with "The Beginning of the End."

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: What, 5 out of 5! Get serious.
Review: How can anyone really give this movie more than 2 stars? To sum it up, "Great FX, bad movie." Lucky to get one star but since I did get a decent laugh from it..., and yes I did watch the whole thing (what was I thinking! )

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What a ride!
Review: This movie rocks! It just doesn't let up from start to finish. I really get a kick out of it. Of course it's not Shakespeare, nor is it a documentary, but it is entertaining. Just buckle up and hold on! I prefer the Criterion edition Director's Cut over the standard version DVD. Having viewed both, the picture quality of the Director's Cut is better, with no audio/video problems that I noticed. The additional footage in this version, not found in the theatrical release, is not very much and adds relatively little to the film as a whole (primarily a scene involving Bruce Willis' character visiting his father, prior to the mission), but it is somewhat touching. You also get a second disc absolutely loaded with features, such as outtakes, documentaries, commentaries, etc (note: there is some strong language used by the cast in some of the outtakes sequences, so if you are offended by that, don't play that portion). Now, is all this worth the extra cash to get the Criterion version? That depends on how much of a fan of the movie you are. If you really like it and want to see it in it's best possible presentation, the Criterion version can't be beat. If you really don't care, but still want a copy of the movie in your collection, the standard version is adequate and cheaper.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: still...can't...get...up....
Review: This movie is BY FAR the most amazing, spirit-capturing movie ever made! If the non-stop cover-to-cover action and comedy doesn't get you first, the emotion and music will. If you haven't seen this movie, watch it. I'm dead serious about this (hehe). Armageddon is definately my most favorite movie of ALL TIME (and it'll probably be yours, too)! In short, a must-see.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Kinda gets ya right here!
Review: Bruce Willis makes the ultimate sacrifice to save the planet... It moves me every time I watch it, Just Plain Awesome!
