emotional

Rating: 10/10 (5 December 2006)

It made me laugh and it made me cry! A high charged emotional film that I love! I don't feel it is another Independence Day in the least. Its more emotional then Independence Day is. Independence Day had more fiction then Armageddon. There is every chance that we may come up against a big asteroid the size of Texas etc that could kill off man kind - well more of a chance then little green men taking over Earth like in Independence Day. Most movies ARE fiction so what can you really expect? Maybe there was also hidden meaning behind things in the movies such as sending up a bunch oil drillers, some being on the wrong side of the law to one being a total horn bag that hangs in strip bars opposed to sending up a team of highly trained astronauts. Maybe that was to point out that you don't have to be a person who has "school smarts" or rich or famous to help this country, this world. Just be able to do what you do the best you can do! Some of the characters in the film just get you laughing so hard while there are times when you feel that lump rise up in your throat and feel your eyes start to water. You just have to love Steve Buscemi's character in the movie, he cracks me up through the whole movie. We all know there are chick flicks etc and I think maybe this is a sci-fi chick flick. Men didn't find it that great as they wanted the blood, guts and glory kind of film. But for women such as myself it was one of THE most touching movies of the time!
