Details

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.

Matrixston Wow! Such a good movie.
MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant
Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
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.
cinemajesty Movie Review: "Armagedon" (1998)Jerry Bruckheimer Films backed by Disney Enterprises, Inc. ignites director Michael Bay to helm a 140-Million-Dollar production of an astroid on collision course with "Earth" when smart scientists surrounding suspense-holding actor Billy Bob Thornton at the "NASA" space program command center, when perfectly-cast Bruce Willis as Harry Stamper and his oil-digging specialists alongside at ties mis-matching due to edgeless acting by Ben Affleck, indulging on the U.S. teenage audiences of the late 1990s, when hitting on Stamper's daughter ultra-sweet portrayed by actress Liv Tyler, in Academy-Award-nominated theme song "I don't want to miss a thing" performed by Steve Tyler and band "Aerosmith" to further Director Michael Bay deliveries in a apocalyptic action-thriller with summer blockbuster humor ingredients skillfully written in by screenwriter J.J.Abrams in an early Hollywood job engagement before founding his own production company "Bad Robot" with Bryan Burk in the same year of 1998 at global successes at international box offices due to a play-mode ensemble cast, especially atomic-bomb-riding "Dr. Strangelove" homaging actor Steve Buscemi as character "Rockhound", high-end production design and cinematography, making "Armageddon" an entertainment event movie worth to be witnessed in a slightly lengthy 140-Minutes-Editorial of Hollywood extravaganza.Copyright 2018 Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC
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.
kmo911 this movie has a game made to it. it was not a good game but nice for a few minutes. if there should be games to this movie it would be ps2 tittle. you have a space shuttle few life and if you aim bad the earth dies i asteroid wanes. the movie you have to look for you're self if was nice. if you watch the DVD or bd version if there are some of them there out please LIKE it. the movie was made in 98 when windows 98 se came out. the pc specs are difficult to find on web,but you can play the demo of the game.
