DVD Collection #8: Armageddon

How appropriate only a few days from election day that Armageddon would come up on the list. One of our candidates is like an asteroid and could destroy the world...or at least our country. But I don't want to get political. Armageddon...this is that movie where Bruce Willis and his band of raggedy oil riggers team up with astronauts to save the world in a way that only John McClane...uhm...Bruce Willis could do.

A sarcastic man in an unlikely situation that saves the world. Think Die Hard in space, where the big old asteroid is the bad guy...throw in a bit of Affleck, Aerosmith, Billy Bob, and Buscemi and you've got a great action flick that is SO not Deep Impact, which came out right around the same week....I think there was a volcano movie too...and a volcano movie without Tommy Lee Jones. I don't have any of those.
