I was rooting for the asteroid.

Rating: 1/10 (2 July 2001)

Dollar for dollar I think this is one of the worst movies to come out in a long time. Each line of dialogue from Bruce Willis' character is more macho then the last. Each problem the space crew runs into is supposed to create tension and after a certain point, it created laughter in the audience I saw the movie with. The beautiful cut away shots of the events on earth kept popping up and it reminded me more of a Visa commercial than a plot device. There's a lot of characters in this movie that really don't seem to have a whole lot to do,including Steve Buscemi, which is unfortunate. Bruckheimer films aren't surprising they follow a well known formula and I have to say I've seen most of his films. Armageddon was the first one I almost walked out on. I have yet to go see Pearl Harbor because I still haven't recovered from this one.
