"Now I am really a Russian HEROOOO!!!!!!!!" and "American components, Russian components, ALL MADE IN TAIWAN!!!" are the funniest lines, for me at least. Peter Stormare was perfect in that role.
Man, you don't get anymore 90's blockbuster than this movie👏🏽 I remember watching this as a kid and even I got teary eyes when Harry pushed AJ back into the shuttle😭
I saw this in theaters when I was a kid and nobody was able to not cry to this. I remember my mom absolutely bawling her eyes out. And there were some big, buff guys there who were openly weeping when Harry wouldn't let AJ go through with it. It's a great movie and the epitome of a 1990's action blockbuster/popcorn movie. I've seen this movie so many times and it's still entertaining to this day.
Yeah, Armageddon is a tearjerker. Fun fact. Aerosmith sings "Don't Want to Miss A Thing", which is the end of the movie song. Lead singer for Aerosmith, Steven Tyler is the father of Liv Tyler who plays Bruce Willis' daughter. In the music video for the Aerosmith song directed by Francis Lawrence. They switch out the images of Bruce Willis on the screen for images of Steven Tyler when Liv Tyler is talking to the screens. Outside of Bruce Willis, Billy Bob Thornton and Steve Buscemi. A lot of the other names were very early in their careers. Liv Tyler starred in a handful of movies and her dad's music videos before this. This was Ben Affleck's first movie after Good Will Hunting fame. This was Michael Clarke Duncan's Hollywood breakout role which led him to get cast in The Green Mile. Owen Wilson was only 2 years removed from his debut in Bottle Rocket when he did Armageddon. Peter Stormare was riding a wave of popularity from his role in Fargo (1996). A very young Jason Isaacs is seen in only his third cinema movie role at the time. Seasoned actor Udo Kier is in this movie for a short moment, but he would become famous months late for his role in Blade (1998).
The bulldog attacking the Godzilla toys in the beginning of the movie is a sly "in-joke" from Michael Bay to Roland Emmerich, the director of the movie "Godzilla" which also opened in 1998...
Please consider reacting to Deep Impact (1998) which was another great, star studded asteroid disaster movie that came out the same summer as Armageddon. Armageddon got most of the recognition because it was more of the classic summer, popcorn, blockbuster type films compared to Deep Impact but the critics and actual astronauts seemed to like Deep Impact better for its accuracy. Great movie as well. Executive produced by Steven Spielberg too.
The best part of the dvd commentary is Ben Aflflack talking about how ridiculous the whole concept is, and when he brought it up to Michael Bay..he basically told him to shut up😂
That specific criticism always bothers me. They’re not training oil drillers to be astronauts (think of everything astronauts do), they’re giving them the bare minimum training to be able to move and operate in space and low gravity in order to do the job they are the best at. Whereas they would have to train astronauts to master deep core drilling. I swear I don’t lose sleep over this lol, but I’ve seen the “why is it easier to train drillers to be astronauts instead of training astronauts to drill” question for years, and a lot of people treat it like the biggest dunk on the movie, but it always made sense to me, especially compared to all the other inaccuracies! Still a great movie and a great reaction!
Your reaction was all of us in the late 90s! I think of this as the quintessential 90s blockbuster. It's overwhelming with Bay action, comedy, drama, and a solid core of heart. Michael Bay rarely aims for emotion so it's kind of surprising how effective the ending is.
Armageddon and Independence Day is THE two summer blockbusters for me. They both have the perfect balance of seriousness, ridiculousness, stakes, humor, heart, explosions and a great cast!
Armageddon was a summer smash… and quite possibly the LOUDEST soundtrack of any movie in theaters that year. You shook, your Pepsi shook, everyone shook.
I remember sitting about 3 rooms down from a theater playing this movie, and we were all watching 1998 Godzilla, and parts of Godzilla we could here. It was a super fun movie-going experience.
we watched in in 1998 when it came out, and there was a power cut in the theater.... :P. I hate cliff hangers, so we had to go back the following night the watch the rest.
I saw this movie in Taiwan in the theatre in English with Chinese subtitles when it first came out. In the scene where the cosmonaut says "American components, Russian components, all made in Taiwan" the audience read the Chinese subtitles first before the English dialog and bust into laughter while I, who was just learning Chinese, was going "what, what?"
yes it was from the time they had good enough CGI to make things look good but still did as much in camera with practical effects they could, not like modern movies that CGI in half the super hero's costumes.
When Harry & Grace spoke under the concrete structure, it showed a plaque. You may have missed it. It was the launch pad for Appollo 1. Appollo 1 team of Virgil "Gus" Grissom, Roger Chaffee & Edward White were in the capsule doing checks several days prior to their launch. This meant the capsule fully pressurized with oxygen. At some point, a spark occured and the ensuing fire incinerated the crew. They were unable to open the hatch to escape. It is now a permanent monument to the dangers of space travel
35:30 this scene between Grace and Harry was the entire reason why they got Aerosmith to do the soundtrack; the producers were showing Steve Tyler scenes in their pitch, and the scene broke Steve, he reported that he was a mass of tears, sobbing about how he’ll do the music.
This was the time of dueling movies deep impact/ Armageddon, Twister/Tornado, ID4/ Arrival, etc. Ideas was pushed by two movie houses at the same time and often even shared more than the basic plot. The quaid brothers opposed each other in similar films. The twister,tornado shared a sensor that had to be anchored.
I remember watching this in my college dorm common room with two of my buddies. It got to the end and we were crying. Girls walked by laughing at us. Their loss 😂
Hi Addie, I so appreciate how you watch movies because you want to see them, then make your own judgements. And don't always listen to naysayers. You appreciate cinema as the fun adventure it's supposed to be. This one always makes me cry, too! Please keep doing it your way! Enjoyed watching with you.😊❤
In rest in peace to a legend Bruce Willis...... is family is all around him and they don't expect him to be with us much longer....... one of the best actors ever.... rest in peace
The is the quintessential popcorn movie which I have seen, easily, 15+ times.. the slapstick comedy and tense drama works to perfection. I think Addie felt similar to me as Will Paton's arc hits me the most , especially his last scene , walking along the runway,thinking he has lost his only friend and has no one else, and then sees his son...😢
Hey Addie, I just wanted to say how much I've come to appreciate your videos, and that I watch every single one of them. A few months ago when I first found your channel, I think I left a rude comment, I can't quite remember what I said but it had something to do with expressing disbelief that you hadn't watched/heard of almost any movies. I think I said something like you must have been living under a rock, lol. I don't know where my head was at when I said that, but I wanted to take the opportunity to apologise for it now. I really enjoy your reactions and you always pick great films to watch. I'm glad you share your first-time watching experiences with us. Thank you
One of my favorite movies ever. I've read a lot about the many scientific inaccuracies about this movie, but that does stop me from loving it. It keeps you on the edge of your seat, it packs a powerful emotional punch and I love the characters. This was released right around the same time as Deep Impact and I found myself liking Armageddon better, but Deep Impact has its own things that make it a great movie. Harry's sacrifice gets me every single time. And I love the musical score for this film; it was beautiful. One of my favorite things about this movie that I recognized right away when I saw this in theaters was the narration from the beginning of the movie by the legendary Charlton Heston. He starred in a disaster movie once or twice during his acting career. Another movie I recommend that I first saw as a little boy in the 1970's was the 1951 film When Worlds Collide. That is one I still watch from time to time. For 1951, the special and visual effects are quite good.
I give this movie credit for a unique way to introduce our main cast - by interacting with the 2 leads running around in conflict which also sets the sub-plot.
I saw the premier of this movie with a packed theater. I don't think I've ever been to a movie, before or since, where the audience reacted so much throughout the movie. People were laughing loudly at the funny parts and audibly sobbing at the emotional ones. That scene where Harry was talking to Grace at the end through a screen even prompted the men in the theater, including myself, to do the macho yawn, stretch, wipe the tear move while your date had her tears flowing. It was truly the most entertaining movie I have ever been to. Great reaction!!
I love this movie. It's so much fun, and takes you on such an emotional rollercoaster. I really like that they take the time to establish so many of the major characters early on, so that you get to know them, and are invested in their survival. There are a few characters who didn't get any individual screen time, and when they die, there's not a lot of impact, but when Owen Wilson's character or Max (sorry, can't remember the actor's name) die, you feel it.
Thanks for your genuine reaction. You are right that this movie has everything (a lot of things) and they managed to combine the elements well together. that's hard. adventure, action, explosions, comedy, romance, relationships, thrilling, high stakes, huge mission, team work, joy, fulfilling, storyline, superb casts, acting performances, believable decisions making, music, camera work, props and sets are cool. For a 25 years old movie, the CGI is fantastic. And because its 3 hours long, there is enough time to build up the storyline and relationships for us to care with emotions.
I just got on TH-cam for the night and saw you finally watched Armageddon! I’ve been waiting for this for so long! Have no idea how you’ll react but I can’t wait to see
This movie was an amazing theater experience when it came out! One of the most memorable experiences in a theater I ever had. We all cried at the end with Harry's incredibly selfless sacrifice. Harry is the man!
Out of the more recent disasyer movies Armageddon, Volcano, Twister, Dante's Peak, Deep Impact and The Day After Tomorrow are my favorites. I say more recent because I grew up in the 70's watching disaster movies like the Airport series, The Poseidon Adventure, The Towering Inferno, Earthquake and Avalanche. Irwin Allen disaster movies were very popular in the 70's.
When this movie came out, it was in direct competition with the movie "Deep Impact" as they both had similar themes. "Armageddon" was like an action/adventure/sci-fi film, while "Deep Impact" was more of drama/action movie. I liked "Armageddon" but I really LOVED "Deep Impact" and I strongly recommend seeing it.
Lev, the Russian cosmonaut is probably my favorite out of the bunch. This movie still manages to draw a tear, no matter how many times I watch it. The doggo subtitles you edit in always get a good laugh out of me. 😂
If I remember right, this movie was the first Father/Daughter movie where the Daughter (Liv Tyler) Starred in the movie while her Father (Steven Tyler of Aerosmith) did the Sound Track for the movie. Steven Tyler wrote the song "Don't Wanna miss a Thing" just for this movie. Addie, I'm really glad that you enjoyed this movie.
Steven Tyler didn't write the song. It was written by Diane Warren, who originally envisioned it would be performed by "Celine Dion or somebody like that". Steven Tyler didn't want to do it all until he watched a clip of the final scenes between Grace and Harry.
In the beginning of the movie where the dog is attacking the Godzilla toy. That was a subtle symbolism of what this movie was gonna do to Godzilla in the box office. These movies released at around the same time.
You might not know the significance of the Aerosmith song at the end “don’t want to miss a thing”. Obviously representing the father-daughter relationship in the film, the song was written and performed by the real life father of Liv Tyler, who played Gracie.
This movie was when I knew Ben Affleck was a very good actor. I felt every bit of emotion from him, especially banging on the door to let them in when the space station exploded and of course that, "Harry, I love you," scene, lol.
great review ADDIE AND kudos for I think knowing what evil keneval meant when AJ and his buddies were at the cliff! HE was a wild man who did some fantastic jumps and I think broke over 20 bones in his body during his career
Watching the last few movies with Addie, just got to say that I hope she finds a great love (assuming she doesn't already have it that is). I appreciate her reactions to proposals ☺️
"Now I am really a Russian HEROOOO!!!!!!!!" and "American components, Russian components, ALL MADE IN TAIWAN!!!" are the funniest lines, for me at least. Peter Stormare was perfect in that role.
I really hope Bear got that summer in the White Horse. RIP Michael Clarke Duncan.
His widow did. Omorosa
"Michael Duncan, like the donuts but not spelled the same."
@krashd You made me want to simultaneously laugh and weep. I haven't decided which yet.
Man, you don't get anymore 90's blockbuster than this movie👏🏽 I remember watching this as a kid and even I got teary eyes when Harry pushed AJ back into the shuttle😭
I remember that Aerosmith song playing constantly on the radio.
No matter how many times I'm watching this, it still works: Making my eyes wet.
This was a regular movie at our house growing up.
Some films just get me every time. ❤
@@waffles4393 I DONT WANT TO CLOSE MY EYYYYEEEEESSSSSSSSSS
Bruce thank you for all the many films you made to entertain us. Now is the time to be with family and loved ones. ❤

Armageddon is good for what it is, but I liked the characters and relationships better in Deep Impact.
Agree completely. Deep Impact is far superior (and I still like Armageddon).
Thank you for that suggestion. I did the same. I watched that movie with my Mom because I knew she wouldn't care for a Michael Bay movie!
we saw this in the theatre. the whole place was sobbing, laughing, and having a great time. Really good movie.
The best part of the dvd commentary is Ben Aflflack talking about how ridiculous the whole concept is, and when he brought it up to Michael Bay..he basically told him to shut up😂
Yeah, it's brilliant. 'Wouldn't it be easier to train astronauts to drill?' 'F- off!'
Iconic moment 😂 "Ben!....shut the duck up"

One of the greatest commentaries ever lmao.
Yeah; Ben is not the sharpest tool in the toolshed. Good thing he's good looking enough to be a successful actor.

Speak for yourself not everyone else.
Armageddon and Independence Day is THE two summer blockbusters for me. They both have the perfect balance of seriousness, ridiculousness, stakes, humor, heart, explosions and a great cast!
Yup love both movies
Yea you’re right. These two were the peak of 90’s blockbusters that had a real patriotic feel to them as well.
Girls: Why can't dudes let their emotions out more when watching movies?
Dudes after watching "We win Gracie!": 😢
This movie is fun, goofy and suprisingly emotionally moving. It makes me cry everytime.
Don't worry Addie, I STILL tear up for just about every reason you did. This reaction was no exception.

Classic “popcorn” summer movie!!
I tear up every time at the end and when the mom says “that’s not a salesman, it’s your daddy”
The actress who plays the mom in this movie is Judith Hoag, who also played Gwen Piper in Halloweentown (1998).
@@alextan1478she was also April in the live action TMNT films
"Nothing will survive, not even bacteria"... quite a sense of finality in that statement.
For a film from over 25 years ago, it still looks quite modern in cinematography, FX, editing and sound, and has aged excellently.
yes it was from the time they had good enough CGI to make things look good but still did as much in camera with practical effects they could, not like modern movies that CGI in half the super hero's costumes.

This is one of the best movies from the 90's, great cast, story and music.
36:26 Percussive Maintenence is a well known strategy
Gotta love Addie. Her heart, her excitement level. Easily one of my favorite reactors. I really enjoyed your reactions Addie. Keep up the great work.
FYI- The Mathew Broderick Godzilla movie came out that same summer. That's why the dog was attacking Godzilla toys in the opening.
Deep Impact Also
Probably seen this about 50 times and i am still full of tears at multiple parts of it, just shows how good it is
This was a wild movie in the theater, with the explosions being really big. All the actors played their roles perfectly. Really great reaction Addie.
This movie hits ALL the emotions.
You think this is emotional, watch Deep Impact
Will Patton is a highly underrated actor. I love his villainous turn as the post apocalyptic Warlord General Bethlehem in The Postman.
Try Yellowstone.
Entrapment
@@jaykay3784I have seen that movie in 20 yrs. I don’t remember him being in it. I just remember Sean Connery and CZJ (sexy self!).
Every time I see this, I try not to cry at the Bruce Willis and Liv Tyler goodbye scene. Every time I end up crying. It's such a great movie.
Arwen and Batman, the multiverse we needed.
John McClain, Luscious Malfoy, Daredevil, Kingpin,

This is one of the best ever movies for Daughters to watch with their Dads. never fails to bring out the laughs and the cries!
My favorite line:
“Move aside! You don’t know the components!”
“American components, Russian components… All made in Taiwan!”
Clerks in space. " We're not even supposed to be here"

*"The Arrival", Arrival is a 2016 movie starring that ginger chick that was selling purses in that one episode of the office (US version).
One of the GREATEST movies of all time. Bruce Willis became John Wayne in this film. ❤ your reaction Addie
Watching this breaks my heart thinking of Bruce and his family.
A great reaction to a great movie. Thank you Addie
Fun fact the song playing during the ending credits was by Steven Tyler and he wrote it for his daughter Liv Tyler who plays Grace in the movie
I remember watching this in my college dorm common room with two of my buddies. It got to the end and we were crying. Girls walked by laughing at us. Their loss 😂
Girls want us to be vulnerable, but when we are vulnerable, they laugh and tell us to toughen up. We can't win.😆

For real. I pity their boyfriends. Lol
I love how the main song is sang by her dad, and its written for her... its such a perfect song for this movie.

25 years later still one of the best of saying goodbye scene in movies, and in the B.Willies movie where often someone has to stay behind.

Such a great one, and yes it has fun, emotion, ALL THE THINGS! What a great movie!
Now you got to watch "Deep Impact" which came out in the same year.
One of my top 5 movies. Love this movie. Glad you finally got to see it. Yes, I will admit I cry every time
This movie was an amazing theater experience when it came out! One of the most memorable experiences in a theater I ever had. We all cried at the end with Harry's incredibly selfless sacrifice. Harry is the man!
I’ve seen this and I cry at the end every single time.
Great reaction ❤ no matter how many times I watch this, it always ages me shed a tear 😢
Now that the dad is going to be rich and famous, the mom tells the kid who he is.😂
When Liv Tyler was talking to the screen, she was actually talking to her father, Steven Tyler.
I cried, too, Addie. Of course, I cry any time a movie is good enougn - even with Afleck in it - that I find myself watching it anyway.
I like how Addie went from a light romantic movie fan completely oblivious to the sci fi genre to it being one of her favourites now 😀
this is great storytelling that we will never see from woke hollywood again!!!!!
Great Reaction Addie. Such a great underated movie from Michael Bay! And what a cast. Always cry near the end!
Widely considered Bay`s best movie and you call it "underrated"?
You keep using that word. I don`t think it means what you think it means.
Seen this movie tons of times. Always get emotional.
Out of the more recent disasyer movies Armageddon, Volcano, Twister, Dante's Peak, Deep Impact and The Day After Tomorrow are my favorites.
I say more recent because I grew up in the 70's watching disaster movies like the Airport series, The Poseidon Adventure, The Towering Inferno, Earthquake and Avalanche. Irwin Allen disaster movies were very popular in the 70's.
😊 another great reaction A. I remember seeing this one in the theater back in the day. Still a great apocalyptic movie. Welcome to space. 🛸 👽 🌖
I was on an army base.
This movie combined with the soundtrack of Aerosmith's I Don't Want To Miss a Thing is chef's kiss.
the easter egg- godzilla was the competitor at the time
I think everyone gets a little teary eyed watching how this movie ends
For me the most sorrowful scene was the death of Freddy Noonan. Gets me every time I see it.
"He's got Space Dementia" made me laugh so much I got some weird looks in the theater.
Best reaction of the year Addie
Still to this day one of the only movies that can make me cry
When this movie came out, it was in direct competition with the movie "Deep Impact" as they both had similar themes. "Armageddon" was like an action/adventure/sci-fi film, while "Deep Impact" was more of drama/action movie. I liked "Armageddon" but I really LOVED "Deep Impact" and I strongly recommend seeing it.
Agreed Armageddon is a great action movie, but Deep Impact is a fantastic film, let's just say it's way more 'impactful' 😉
She cried in Armageddon, she'll be in the fetal position after Deep Impact.
Addie, For more of Owen Wilson (and Jackie Chan) check out Shanghai Noon, a Funny Western. Also the sequel Shanghai Knights is really good as well.
This was one of my favourite movies growing up!
Awesome reaction of my favorite movie!!!!!😊😊😊😊
90s Michael Bay made some absolute hits, love this movie!
I'm going to throw in the obligatory "if you watched Armageddon, you have to watch Deep Impact" if you haven't already Addie!
She cried in Armageddon, she'll be in the fetal position after Deep Impact.
This - it's a mandatory followup.
Also Seeking A Friend For The End Of The World.
That shit is going to make you cry.
Good Call. I did the same!
Ok but honestly Armageddon is WAY better movie than Deep Impact.
Oh for sure! For sure!
Man !! One of the biggest blockbusters of its time 😆 saw this in the movie theatres
Lev, the Russian cosmonaut is probably my favorite out of the bunch.
This movie still manages to draw a tear, no matter how many times I watch it.
The doggo subtitles you edit in always get a good laugh out of me. 😂
He was in Coen Brothers movies like, Fargo and The Big Lebowski
Peter Stormare
@@patm5594He was also the eye surgeon in Minority Report
@@jaykay3784 he plays a Russian mobster in Bad Boys 2. And a sleezeball in 8mm.
Also in Constantine and The Lost World.... And Logjammin'
If I remember right, this movie was the first Father/Daughter movie where the Daughter (Liv Tyler) Starred in the movie while her Father (Steven Tyler of Aerosmith) did the Sound Track for the movie. Steven Tyler wrote the song "Don't Wanna miss a Thing" just for this movie. Addie, I'm really glad that you enjoyed this movie.
Steven Tyler didn't write the song. It was written by Diane Warren, who originally envisioned it would be performed by "Celine Dion or somebody like that".
Steven Tyler didn't want to do it all until he watched a clip of the final scenes between Grace and Harry.
@@toodlescae my mistake. He atleast sang it for this movie.
@@jamesdee759 yup and it's a fantastic song.
@@toodlescae yea it is. I'm glad that someone like Steven Tyler was able to sing/perform it and help make it a hit like it deserves to be.
In the beginning of the movie where the dog is attacking the Godzilla toy. That was a subtle symbolism of what this movie was gonna do to Godzilla in the box office. These movies released at around the same time.
You might not know the significance of the Aerosmith song at the end “don’t want to miss a thing”. Obviously representing the father-daughter relationship in the film, the song was written and performed by the real life father of Liv Tyler, who played Gracie.
*A rock falls and shows unimaginable death and destruction.* Addie: Not the Eiffel Tower! 🤣
Charelton Heston’s voice was so awesome for narration.
Just for the record, you've also "seen" Michael Clarke Duncan in Kung Fu Panda, in a smaller role as the prison warden.
✌😁
This movie was when I knew Ben Affleck was a very good actor. I felt every bit of emotion from him, especially banging on the door to let them in when the space station exploded and of course that, "Harry, I love you," scene, lol.
great review ADDIE AND kudos for I think knowing what evil keneval meant when AJ and his buddies were at the cliff! HE was a wild man who did some fantastic jumps and I think broke over 20 bones in his body during his career
Watching the last few movies with Addie, just got to say that I hope she finds a great love (assuming she doesn't already have it that is). I appreciate her reactions to proposals ☺️
