Synopsis
Armageddon is an Academy Award-nominated disaster/science fiction film about a group of blue-collar deep-core drillers who are sent by NASA to deflect an asteroid on a collision course with Earth. It was directed by Michael Bay, produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and released on Disney's Touchstone Pictures label. It stars Bruce Willis, Billy Bob Thornton, Ben Affleck and Liv Tyler. The film's tagline is "For Love. For Honor. For Mankind."


Armageddon was released at a time when disaster films were seeing a comeback. Another disaster film, involving a comet instead of an asteroid, Deep Impact, was made in the same year as well as Godzilla. The previous year had seen two volcano-based disaster movies, Dante's Peak, starring Pierce Brosnan, and Volcano, starring Tommy Lee Jones.
