A really good movie.

Rating: 10/10 (2 May 2002)

This is a somewhat sad movie. It was a dramatic film, yet comical and action-packed all the way. Bruce Willis does a great job here. ARMAGEDDON is the story of a team of oil drillers sent up into space to detonate a nuclear bomb inside an asteroid the size of Texas that is about to impact Earth. This movie was a good dramatic actioneer. Ben Affleck's performance in the end was moving. I really enjoyed this movie as should everyone else who sees it.
Peter Storemare is good and funny as the Russian cosmonaut picked up along the way. You will find many things within this film, and there is certainly something for everyone. Romance, action, drama, etc. Steve Buscemi is a little annoying as the comical Rockhound, but in the end he turns out to be a jestful character. Billy Bob Thornton was also great. He delivers one of his best performances since SLING BLADE. Since I didn't see this movie in theaters, I missed out on hearing the sound on a good surround system, but even if it isn't on a good surround stereo, you still get an ear full. Now, you will like the end of this best of all. It moves you just like how good movies should. Ben Affleck almost makes you cry. But for some reason it doesn't succeed on that level. But it does on just about every other......5/5.
