Definitely the Wrong Stuff.

Rating: 4/10 (11 April 2003)

I remember looking at APOLLO 13 and seeing how great it was, and now we have ARMAGEDDON, which is actually a ho-hum End-Of-The-World picture about a group of drillers who go into outer space to destroy a huge asteroid the size of Texas before it hits Earth, ending all life as we know it. The movie has a much weaker story than APOLLO 13, and the special effects are some of the cheeziest I've seen in recent years. If you like outer space movies, I recommend APOLLO 13. If you like special effects-filled doomsday movies, the one for you is INDEPENDENCE DAY. ARMAGEDDON is not much of a thrill ride of a movie that is only saved by Aerosmith's hit ballad.
