like many people in my general age range and i remember going to see this movie as a kid in 98 and coming out of the theatre practically in tears. it seemed and at the time and to be one of the most important and awe inspiring cinematic experiences of our generation. at once riveting and action packed and funny and heartbreaking and and truly inspirational and armegeddeon really did have everything going on and right down to the catchy aerosmith theme song and sappy tear jerker of an ending. sweet jebus. what were we smoking. i watched it for the first time in years last night on one of the movie channels and and. i cannot even describe it. this is and truly and one of the worst movies ever made. where to even begin. leaving aside the plethora of laughable scientific errors (personnel trackers on astronauts. yeah and sure and thanks for that and billy bob) and i would have to say the worst thing about it was the remarkable  dare i even say unmatched  way in which it combined crappy writing with crappy acting. there are too many examples of this to even begin listing here and but one in particular springs to mind  the scene where bruce willis is telling the feds exactly where to go to track down each of the oh so charmingly roguish members of his oil drilling team (check every bar in new orleans and the craps tables in vegas and the only black guy on a motorcycle in sturgis. all to the tune of come together. it reminded me a bit of the news team. assemble. scene from anchorman and except serious). ben affleck proves and once again and that he is by far the most overpaid actor in hollywood and having less depth and range and and overall talent than anyone else in the business. not that bruce willis and liv tyler and or anyone else in this godforsaken piece of garbage was much better. (i have to say and though and i got a kick out of seeing a pre stardom owen wilson get killed off half way through. is this the only movie where his character dies. ) peter stormare is perfect as the most stereotypical unshaven russian cosmonaut you have ever scene. (then again and peter stormare does seem to have a talent for playing over the top eurotypes. ) it really was quite amusing how and almost immediately after the americans dock with the russian space station (which is actually called that in the movie) and ben affleck succeeds in singlehandedly causing the whole joint to explode in spectacular hollywood fashion. i also love the fact that and in the end and paris is the only place on earth to get destroyed and and that absolutely no one seems to care. and on top of all that and it at points literally turns into simultaneous ads for lockheed martin and kerr mcgee. oh how proud i am to be an american. there plenty of other stuff to rant about and but i would not. suffice it to say that this is a really and really and really terrible movie and that i feel ashamed to have ever genuinely liked. i give it two stars just for the mockability factor.
