Astounding on first viewing but doesn't hold up over time.

Rating: 6/10 (25 October 2000)

The first time I saw Armageddon I enjoyed the wonderful effects and the harrowing situation the characters were in. It had a great cast including talents such as Bruce Willis, Liv Tyler, Steven Buscemi and Michael Duncan Clark, a sweet love story, a strained father-daughter relationship and adrenaline filled action. A lot of the dialogue was hilarious and the serious moments were touching. After seeing this movie several times it becomes boring in some parts and seems kind of long. It was a movie that was an experience but not something you could lose yourself in repeatedly.
