Why did NASA put its name on this?

Rating: Null/10 (18 November 1998)

After seeing Armageddon, you wonder why NASA was so keen to provide assistance. The organisation is successively portrayed as heartless boffins, technology thieves and helpless pawns of the military, all the expensive training in the world apparently being no match for brawn and good ol' blue-collar ingenuity. Then there are all the ridiculous scientific inaccuracies - after Apollo 13, moviegoers know what NASA and space are really like! Even Moonraker was more believable.
