Armageddon (DVD)

Any self respecting action fan should have this title in thier collection. Bruce Willis is called on to save the world once again, with many a one liner, sweaty close-up, slo-mo action sequence and pithy one liners. Liv Tyler, Ben Affleck, Will Patton and Peter Stormare turn in great supporting performances, with Billy Bob Thornton's harrassed NASA man particalrly noteworthy, along with Steve Buscemi and Owen Wilson as unconventional geniuses. Bay ...

Review of Armageddon (DVD)

...deep impact and then bam armageddon brings it straight back to us again in the same time frame. I mean talk about over working a story line or something. The plot involves a very large comet coming to hit earth and some over hyped bunge of weirdos are sent into space to save the day. They save the day, Oh so hard to figure that one out, and everyone goes home happy. I don't recommend this game to anyone because it is so boring and so dull. ...

IF I HAD 10p FOR EVERYTIME I HAVE WATCHED THIS FILM I WOULD HAVE ENOUGH TO MAKE A SEQUEL. I WAS LUCKY TO CATCH THIS FILM ON THE BIG SCREEN, DVD AND VHS VIDEO AND EVERY TIME IT IMPRESSED ME. THE BIG SCREEN IS THE BEST OF COURSE BUT THE DVD EXPERIENCE ALLOWS YOU TO GET IN TO THE FILM IN AN EMOTIONAL WAY. THE STORYLINE IS ONE THAT TAKES MANY TWISTS AND TURNS BUT IS BASICALLY ABOUT A GROUP OF OIL DRILLERS WHO ARE TRAINED AS ASTRONOUGHTS TO GO ON TO AN ...

Review of Armageddon (DVD)

...the exception of Sixth Sense, Armageddon is definately the best film I have with Bruce Willis in a long time. Basically Bruce and his crew who normally operate an oil rig are called upon to save the world by drilling on a huge asteroid which is due to collide with the earth. I won't spoil the ending although it is pretty obvious that the world does go on but there are some tear jerking moments towards the end but there is also comedy and lots of ...

This film is very very good. I do not have a widescreen television so it was a little annoying having to watch the film with two big black bars accross the top and bottom of the screen. I can't complain though the acting and screenplay is great! I watched this film at the cinema first of all. It was great. The special effects are really amazing! I found the film funny but also moving. I thought the love story was a little soppy. I would've left ...

Armageddon is an amazing film. It is academy award winning and filled with brilliant actors including, Bruce Willis, Billy Bob Thornton, Ben AFfleck and Liv Tyler. I was first introduced to this film by my sister who explained how sad it was just by someone explaing the storline to her and after i watched it, although it made me sad, this film is definately one of my favourites! It is full of romance, action and tragedy which makes the film as amazing ...

This movie is the lowest form a condascending patriotic trite the American film industry can inflict upon us. The plot is banal and implausable the actors are unbelievable, and one dimesional need I go on. The plot is almost summed up save the word averted which is where Bruce Willis comes in as an rugged drilling contractor who has been assigned to plant an nuclear device in the fast approaching meteorite, he succeeds and thankfully dies, ( about ...

I love this film, i have watched it several times and it is one of those films that you can easliy watch a few times a year. The acting is brilliant by all actors, espcecially by Bruce Willis..he never dissapoints as hes such a fantastic actor! A dramatic film about the imminent end of the world if an asteroid hurtling toward Earth can't be blown off by some courageous astronauts. A great film from start to finish and suitable realy for most ages ...
...funny parts, loads of action and a little romance too. This is the sort of film that has you on the edge of your seat throughout and its not predictable like alot of films with simular storylines.. I would definately recommend this film to all my friends and family members. Great special effects too. ...

Review of Armageddon (DVD)

Armageddon was released a couple of years back when distruction movies seemed to be all the craze. Very similar movies were released just a month or two before this hit the cinemas, and I was dreading it would be far too similar to be classed as a really good film. After viewing this film, I was very pleasently surprised! It had that bit of magic, that certain sparkle, that extra twist in the tale, that the other films didn't have. This was a really ...

Review of Armageddon (DVD)

This big Hollywood blockbuster isn’t that bad to be fair to it. Bruce Willis and his team get sent up into space to try and drill into an asteroid to explode it before it hits the Earth and destroys it. There was obviously a massive budget for this movie with the big name stars in it like Bruce Willis, Ben Affleck and Liv Tyler. But the star of this movie is definitely Steve Buscemi. That man seems to light up every movie he is in. But this a reasonable ...

Near misses from large astoroids is not science fiction, but has actually happend in the past. Astronomers believe that such an astoroid has a possiblity of colliding with the earh in this century. But technology progresses so fast that humans will be able to destroy such an object before it reaches the earth. Armagaddon is based on this theory and portrays something that can actually take place in the future. Bruce Willis plays the part of a driller ...

This film is extremely cheesy the entire way through, but....if what you want at the time is a simple to follow, all action, big gutsy action movie, then this is a great film. Bruce Willis and Steve Buscemi play excellent characters almost with a little irony at times. Liv Tyler is fine in it, although not a central charcter throughout. The story is simple, yet big enough to at least see you through to the end of the film. The quality of the filming, ...

Review of Armageddon (DVD)

There is a Meteor hurtling towards Earth and there is only one way to save the earth - get a group of deep core drillers to place a Nuke in the center of the asteroid. Sounds a little daft, but don't let that put you off the film. This is an amazing film. The acting is very well done as is the special effects. The DVD has a number of features, but i feel that they could have done a little more. They could have done a documentary on how likely it ...

Review of Armageddon (DVD)

Head for the hills, the asteroids are coming, and they're bigger and more menacing than anything "Deep Impact" could throw at us. They don't call this spectacular doomsday adventure, "Armageddon" for nothing. But first a few baby asteroids wet our appetite for the all out destruction. Is this truly the end of mankind? Don't be silly. There's always Bruce Willis and his "Dirty Dozen" of oil drilling misfits playing astronauts. Billy Bob Thornton, ...
...to drill a hole in the Texas sized asteroid and deposit a nuclear bomb. The action becomes exquisitely intense with all hell breaking loose during their "Mission Impossible". Director Michael Bay keeps pouring it on, leaving us breathless with excitement. Since even the mightiest of adventures needs some sex on the side, Bruce's main man Ben Affleck goes drilling for romance with Willis's sultry daughter Liv Tyler. And since hokey and corny are key ...
