Pray for the Comet

Rating: Null/10 (5 April 2003)

I love most disaster films, don't get me wrong. But...

'Comet,' 'Meteor,' 'Asteroid'... there's generally nothing complex about them, so don't make of them more that what they're really worth. Sure, they're usually entertaining and largely exciting to watch, but 'Armageddon' is not one of them. Neither is 'Deep Impact,' its sister film.
Armageddon features way too many reels invested in the 'planting the bombs' end sequence (snore-whistle-wheeze-snooze!!) so how's this supposed to keep us glued to the events. Just land, plant the explosives-or-whatever, and get the hell off the-thing-hurtling-towards-Earth...sheeesh, its not that difficult to anticipate! And movies like this one should never run longer than 90 mins. unless they're rrreeaaalll good story-wise.
You don't need to know anymore than that... and I'm not a fan of Bruce Willis either so, understandably, I took several naps during the course of this movie. ZZZZZZ
