Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
... View MoreJust so...so bad
... View MoreI am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
... View MoreThe plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
... View MoreThis is what a call a perfect history that something that may happen in future. Very realistic movie, excellent cast, lot of action, amazing ending . One of the best movie I ever watched in my life
... View MoreTone, Script & Story: I like the movies which teach us something. The movies which give us something to think about. In short increasing our knowledge base, putting something in our think tank. Armageddon is sci-fi. It portrays a phenomenon that can occur in future. A phenomenon that might have been the reason humans exist and dinosaurs don't, on planet earth.The story puts light how a group of miners dig through an asteriod and avoid it from crashing into earth. It does not end here, in the process of portraying a film that saves us from another mass extinction it puts light on human values like love, emotions, sacrifice, heroism and the list goes on. Thus it has got all factors required for a good movie.Final Verdict: It has got something to impart knowledge into your think tank. It is worth adding to your collection.
... View MoreMy father watched two films repeatedly while I was growing up, The Fifth Element and Armageddon. He might've just really liked Bruce Willis, to be sure, but he pointed out to me a very true point: nobody who watched Armageddon had a dry eye. I still feel a deep feeling anytime the pivotal moments of come up, it simply moves me.I might be influenced by my father's taste in movies, but, this movie in particular has always made both me and my friends teary-eyed. Even in 2016, this movie still carries impact. It ain't pretty, let me tell ya, but this is what i get. Every day the same old same old, and now I'm going on and on to satisfy length requirements. Everything after the 2016 line was all just for lengthening this review for requirements. Yep.
... View MoreThe only things missing from this farce were Murray, Belushi, Aykroyd, Guttenberg, and Candy.Sheesh. This movie could not figure out what it wanted to be. An epic story of saving mankind or a slapstick comedy. Trying to be both, it missed the mark.Thanks to the fantastic cast, not all was lost. But it seemed like a big-budget variation of a SyFy channel movie. The "special effects" were way overdone and beyond any possible semblance of the realm of reality. The idea that a band of oil rigging roughnecks could learn to fly a spaceship in a few days is an insult to everyone in the space program. The idea that we could land a spaceship going 22,500 mph on a meteor moving 22,500 mph is beyond ludicrous. And the movie should have been about an hour shorter.Otherwise, I loved it.4 stars only because I liked most of the cast.About my reviews: I do not offer a synopsis of the film -- you can get that anywhere and that does not constitute a meaningful review -- but rather my thoughts and feelings on the film that hopefully will be informative to you in deciding whether to invest 90-180 minutes of your life on it.My scale: 1-5 decreasing degrees of "terrible", with 5 being "mediocre" 6- OK. Generally held my interest OR had reasonable cast and/or cinematography, might watch it again 7 - Good. My default rating for a movie I liked enough to watch again, but didn't rise to the upper echelons 8- Very Good. Would watch again and recommend to others 9- Outstanding. Would watch over and over; top 10% of my ratings 10 - A Classic. (Less than 2% receive this rating)
