Armageddon

Pros: great special effects, some good humor, some good story moments
Cons: overall lack of believable plot

It seems like lately this has been on some cable station every day. Why do I know this? Because my husband insists on watching the cable cuts, commercials and all, despite the fact that we have the DVD sitting less than 5 feet from the television. ...

Pros: Great action, romance and humor
Cons: Makes me cry, but that is not really a bad thing. Needless gun use.

This is the first write off that I have sponsored. I entitled the write off “This Movie Really Made Me Cry”. The write off was inspired by a movie that although it is intended to be an action flick makes me bawl every time I watch it. This is a movie...

Pros: Great Musical Score
Cons: none

I love to listen to movies. I cannot offer anything to a review on a movie about the visual effects but I can share how the movie made me feel when it was over. Before rating this please know that I can only review what I heard or was told. If my opinion...

Pros: Well written, great special effects
Cons: none

Critics, and the Media did not pay this movie enough justice. I thought it was fabulous! The special effects were phenominal, and the direction, and the story was one of kind.

Bruce Willis was the only one who could have played the oil miner...

Pros: This review is quite amusing.
Cons: The film is as flat as a plate of urine.

No faithful readers, you favorite neighborhood misanthrope has not replaced you weekly dose of feel-good socialism with a essay on the Messiah. He has merely elected to participate in the Stinky Movie Write-Off and his contempt for the film to be ...

Pros: It's badly good.
Cons: See "pros".

One of the worst movies I’ve ever seen, simply because it does not work as a piece of art, is 1998’s Armageddon. I guess, by the physical definition, “motion picture”, it can qualify as a real movie. But, by work of art, which is ...

Pros: special effects, cast
Cons: plot

I tell you, this movie is not what I had hoped. When making amovie on such a touchy subject. And maybe it is not for you, but for some people who are afraid of the day when a asteroid or meteor could possibly harm us. This movie is not for you.
...

Pros: Great special effects, story quickly-paced.
Cons: Almost everything that happens is ludicrous.

The "event movie" industry is quickly becoming one of the most ruthless forms of competition in the world. Every major Hollywood studio is out to one-up the other by spending as much money as possible with as little effort at intelligence as possible. ...

Pros: Humorous moments, good soundtrack
Cons: Loud, obnoxious, lack of any common sense

We all love sci-fi disaster movies. It's a guilty pleasure. I can tolerate disaster movies as long as there was effort involved to make it as entertaining as possible. This movie was watchable, but it was not an entertaining experience. "Armaggedon" is a ...

Pros: Bruce Willis, Billy Bob Thornton, Steve Buscemi, amazing special effects, great action
Cons: unrealistic at times, clichéd moments

What would you do if you knew that tomorrow the world was going to come to an end? Who would you talk to? What would you accomplish or attempt to accomplish before the end was to come? Where would you place yourself as you waited for that fateful moment ...

Pros: Good characters
Cons: Improbable stroy

Murphy's Law states that whatever can happen, will happen. I think the writers and director of this movie took that to heart and went a little too far with it.

Brief plot summary: A huge meteor is headed to earth. There are only 18 days...

Pros: cast
Cons: everything else

Armageddon, better known as the end of the world. The day Earth is destroyed, and civilization ceases to exist. Welcome to NASA, where basically some of the most intelligent people in the world work, and according to Bruce Willis they " Think sh*t...

Pros: fun, a good old movie, I like Bruce Willis!
Cons: not believable, quite a few goofs, makes me cry!

When an asteroid is discovered to be on a collision course with earth, who ya gonna call? Bruce Willis of course! The basic premise of this film is pretty far fetched. A team of loud, roughneck deep core drillers are sent into outer space to land on an ...

Pros: great actors
Cons: I hated the ending

I first saw this movie on the big scree when it first came out. I don't think there was a dry eye in the theatre once the movie was over. I loved it so much I had to buy it once it was released on video. Needless to say I might have been influence by...

Pros: Cast, story, special effects
Cons: Some parts in the movie are not probable.

One of the best summer movie seasons in my life had to be the summer of 1998. It debuted such movies as The X-Files, The Haunting, Deep Impact and my favorite, Armageddon. Jerry Bruckheimer and Michael Bay, teamed up to make...
