When a massive asteroid threatens to annihilate Earth, NASA recruits a team of roughneck oil drillers, led by Bruce Willis, to land on the rock and blow it to smithereens! Directed by Michael Bay and co-written by J.J. Abrams and packed with high-octane action, emotional stakes, and an iconic soundtrack, Armageddon quickly became a blockbuster hit and a defining disaster film of the ’90s. With its all-star cast including Billy Bob Thornton, Ben Affleck, Liv Tyler, Steve Buscemi, Owen Wilson and more, this larger-than-life ride that helped cement the era of explosive summer blockbusters.

“It's big, it's stupid, it's pretty kick-ass.”
– Marc Savlov, AUSTIN CHRONICLE -
“Never let it be said that Armageddon errs on the side of subtlety.”
– Maitland McDonagh, FILM JOURNAL INTERNATIONAL -
“As a summer popcorn flick, the film has its moments and is ultimately enjoyable, even though the fate of the planet seems to take a backseat plotwise to the fate of Liv Tyler and Ben Affleck's goo-goo-eye-making.”
– Christine James, BOX OFFICE MAGAZINE -
“I hate Armageddon for what it is: the unholy spawn of The Dirty Dozen and Con Air.”
– Peter Travers, ROLLING STONE
