Just blasted off with a cheesy grin in Armageddon (1998)! This disaster flick throws Bruce Willis at a Texas-sized asteroid hurtling towards Earth. The solution? Drill a hole in it and plant a nuke, all led by a ragtag team of roughnecks who are better at drilling than, well, anything else.

The action is loud and over-the-top, with explosions in space that would make Michael Bay proud. Bruce Willis delivers his usual wisecracking charm, even in the face of planetary doom. The romance subplot between Liv Tyler and Ben Affleck feels a bit tacked on.

The science might be shaky (drilling an asteroid? really?), but the film embraces its popcorn entertainment value. It’s all about defying the odds with a touch of blue-collar heroism.

Armageddon is a fun disaster flick, perfect for a night of cheesy thrills and watching Bruce Willis save the world (again). But if you crave scientific accuracy or a deep plot, this ain’t your asteroid to land on.
