Armageddon: The perfect mix of story line emotion and breath taking Action

Rating: 10/10 (25 November 1998)

I have to admit, the first time I saw Armageddon it didn't exactly take my breath away. I'd been running late that day and came in about 15 minutes into the movie.. so already it was hard for me to get into it.
But the second time I saw it, not only was I blown away by the special effects but so was my entire family. I noticed much more of the story between Gracie and her daddy and that's what made it so emotional for me at the end, being able to connect with each character, being able to feel the pandemonium of the impending crises... my heart races, my palms are sweaty, and my eyes are filled with tears at that last second Harry had.. beautiful acting, gripping and intelligent story line- you may say it's not believable, but hell- if it came down to this in real life, wouldn't it be great if some of US were this brave? I loved it- to hell with Private Ryan, Armageddon deserves the OSCAR:) A++
