A consummate summer movie

Rating: 10/10 (16 September 1998)

People say Armageddon didn't have a lot of plot. Well, I was surprised at the amount of plot and character development it did have, considering director Michael Bay's last picture, the all-testosterone "The Rock." No, this wasn't "Schindler's List," but when I walked out of the theater, I asked myself the most important question when dealing with movies - Did I have fun watching it. With Armageddon, the answer was a resounding "YES"
