My Favorite Movie

Armageddon

My favorite movie is Armageddon. I have seen many times on TV. Every tome I saw this movie, I was moved to tears by it. Armageddon was showing in 1998. This movie is set in America in 1998, too.

Plot: Comparable to the size of Texas with a massive asteroid approach to Earth and New York was filled with countless groups of meteorites. The result of calculation, it came to light that they collided with the Earth after 18 days. To avoid annihilation, General Truman (Billy Bob Thornton), commander of NASA is heard the idea that opening a hole in the asteroid's surface, exploding nuclear bomb at underground and can change orbit of asteroid. He asks Harry (Bruce Willis), Oil and mining professionals to drill on the planet. Harry collects call Chick (Will Patton), Rockhound (Steve Buscemi) and Harry's daughter Grace (Liv Tyler) love AJ (Ben Affleck) whom he has been working together for many years. After a rigorous training, they get on the two shuttles to the planet. But the "Independence"　which AJ got failed to land. Harry and others started on drilling work, but the work was difficult. However, AJ who is believe to be dead rushed and were riding excavator, and he succeeded in drilling with Harry. However it was found out that anyone have to explode a nuclear by hand. It was decided that AJ remains there by lot, but Harry picked AJ up the shuttle, and he leave a message to AJ "the daughter's husband is proud of you.” And he returned to the excavation site, press button of the nuclear. The asteroid digressed orbit and Earth was saved by Harry’s sacrificial act.

Soundtrack: The soundtrack features the song of Armageddon was “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing”, performed by Aerosmith. This song is the only number one hit of the band’s career. I like this song, and I am moved by this song every time. Moreover Steven Tyler of Aerosmith is Liv Tyler’s father, and she plays the role of the heroine in Armageddon. When the last scene that Harry will remain in the asteroid and he communicates with his daughter at last was filmed, Liv Tyler played a more realistic performance by describing her real father, Steven Tyler, on the screen of NASA.
