Synopsis

When an asteroid threatens to collide with Earth, NASA honcho Dan Truman determines the only way to stop it is to drill into its surface and detonate a nuclear bomb. This leads him to renowned driller Harry Stamper, who agrees to helm the dangerous space mission provided he can bring along his own hotshot crew. Among them is the cocksure A.J. who Harry thinks isn't good enough for his daughter, until the mission proves otherwise.

Linkshoch Wonderful Movie
UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
astagl Let's see where do I begin:The shuttles fly around in space like X-Wing fightersall of the aircraft in space make whooshing noisesThe astroid looks like an alien planet complete with weird alien screaming noises American space shuttles apparently have the ability to dock to a Russian space station The drilling machines have Gatling guns on them The astroid has a stronger gravitational pull than the moon I could do this all day but I think you get the point. It really should be a sci-fi film not an action film. I knew it was going to be cheesy, hello it's Michael Bay right? But in the end I'm just disappointed.
Kingslaay This film was everything you would want in an Apocalypse or end of the world movie. It had a plot that was reasonable to go along with, great acting and directing and an immortal song. I am astounded by the low rating on IMDb, I guess people can't appreciate a great film. I had high expectations before I watched it and this film more than exceeded it. It had some iconic scenes and was just beautifully made. I wish I was old enough to have watched it at the theaters because it would have been a life changing experience. The beauty of this film is was uplifting despite its sad moments. Many felt emotional when Bruce Willis made the ultimate sacrifice and his speech from out of space is probably one of the best in film. I am worried for those who can't appreciate the beauty in this film. The movies are an experience and this was larger than life. Despite its silly rating on here it is still popular and memorable. Highly recommended, this should be on your bucket list.
nuoipter termer 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.
2karl- Armageddon is real mans film with heart this had with a budget of 140mill and it made $553,709,788 world wide a big hit in America at 201mill I came out the same year as deep impact which had the same theme about an asteroid head to earth but a different story I gave this one 8/10 directed by blow everything up Micheal bay its was nominated for 4 Oscars Nominated for 4 Oscars Best Sound Kevin O'Connell Greg P. Russell Keith A. Wester Best Effects, Sound Effects Editing George Watters II Best Effects, Visual Effects Richard R. Hoover Pat McClung John Frazier Best Music, Original Song Diane Warren And that song "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing". Which plays at your heartstrings at a pivotal moment in the story After discovering that an asteroid the size of Texas is going to impact Earth in less than a month, N.A.S.A. recruits a misfit team of deep core drillers to save the planet. So as we see oil workers finding oil on when we see Bruce Willis . captures the 'reluctant hero' role, of .. Harry Stamper perfectly which is unusual for Bruce to play against type finds Ben Affleck ... A.J. Frost character in bed with his daughter the guy he trust the most she 4Liv Tyler ... Grace Stamper who is love interest as her father goes on the rampage NASA flies in to find harry to ask for help in drilling on the asteroid he asks for his team to go with the head of NASA Billy Bob Thornton ..character. Dan Truman who is stressed out that his new astronauts might not be able to handle space training as we taught this film is fiction we see 25 yrs later they landed a satellite on a meteor maybe in the future this could become science fact. These asteroids also decimated New York soon thereafter. Then, NASA discovered that there is an asteroid roughly the size of Texas heading towards the Earth, and when it does hit the Earth, the planet itself and all of its inhabitants will be obliterated, worse, the asteroid will hit the Earth in 18 days. Unfortunately, NASA's plans to destroy the asteroid are irrelevant. That is when the U.S. military decides to use a nuclear warhead to blow the asteroid to pieces. Then, scientists decide to blow the asteroid with the warhead inside the asteroid itself. The only man to do it, is an oil driller named Harry Stamper and his group of misfit drillers and geologists. As he and his drill team prepare for space excavation, the asteroid is still heading towards the Earth so we have a huge cast for this because there's is two teams independence and freedom on two space shuttles with the cast as follows is Will Patton ... Chick / Steve Buscemi .his character is deadly in space but his comic timing is crazy but dangerous in space.. RockhoundWilliam Fichtner ... Colonel Willie Sharp Owen Wilson ... Oscar ChoiMichael Clarke Duncan ... Bear /Peter Stormare ... Lev Andropov Ken Hudson Campbell ... Max ( Jessica Steen ... Co-Pilot Jennifer Watts 3Keith David ... General Kimsey / Jason Isaacs ... Ronald Quincy But as they refuel on Mir we see an explosion and the two teams barely survive and then have so come behind the big rock but as one team heads toward the rock freedom gets hit and is blown to pieces leaving the mission in a danger and independence is missed it mark so they have to drill 800 feet in iron fer-rite which is very hard but with Ben character missing and the team having difficulties it's actually very dramatic. The acting is great from pretty much all accounts, even Ben Affleck does a good job here coming to the rescue but the team are undermined by earth because they don't believe they can do it but Bruce character turns out to be a hero in the end a we see his last transmission to his daughter this film is so underrated
