One of my all time favorite, bad rating users get over it already.

Rating: 10/10 (15 October 2006)

The story line is stupid. I agree. Who on Earth can imagine such a stupid story line in which a bunch of "drillers" are contracted by NASA to drill a hole on a meteor and drop a nuke bomb in it. Congratulations, Bay. You just lost 5 points for accepting to direct a film with such a bad story line. 5/10. Wait, because it is sci-fi, I'll give you back .5 point. 5.5/10. Now if you have trouble with sci-fi movie, why bother being at the show at the first place? Now this is when the cast, the OST and the scriptwriter save the day. Each of the actors, actresses of this movie perform an extraordinary effort. If you don't cry when seeing Harry Stamper's last moment, I suggest you get over yourself already. Steve Buscemi, Bruce Willis, Peter Stormare and Owen Wilson add enough funny moments for a sci-fi movie. 8/10. Way to go, Bay. The scripts add another point for Armageddon. What all the characters said is natural, sometimes funny. But natural. 9/10. Finally, you can feel the action as you go along the movie. Some so-called action movie don't have it. Why, because of the music. And the film OST: I don't want to miss a thing appear at the right time, at the right place shines the movie. It is, indeed one of the best OST. 10/10.
People often have a problem. They watch too much garbage before and when it comes to Armageddon, they become null. I mean, come on guys, it's Armageddon, it's the end of the world. Of course, it's some crazy-ass, unrealistic stuffs. What do you expect? It's an excellent movie for what it set out to be.
