Overall, Armageddon is B-grade summer blockbuster, corny at times as expected. Plus, Aerosmith, come on guys!

The song by Aerosmith got excruciating painful as it felt like torture hearing it every day for a few months on the school bus to and from school. According to BoxofficeMojo, the movie grossed $553,709,788 and the budget was $140 million.

To hell with all that maudlin dewey eyed bullshit and the horse it rode in on. Definitely. That song played every single day back in 1998 and you couldn't escape it. The first few times were great but that song got old quick and I had to bear through it on the way to or from school on the bus.

I have to agree that did have some heart and emotion that Armageddon lacked.

Around that time, plenty of movies had very similar plots, copying each other, like Volcano and Dante's Peak.
