Overall: Many have complained that Armageddon has many mistakes and scientific inaccuracies but that's really unavoidable considering the movie's far-fetched scenario. Sit back, relax and enjoy the ride. This was a very fun and entertaining movie. The cast did a great job! It was action packed and suspenseful. Special effects and sound effects were out of this world.
