I prefer Deep Impact over Armegedon because: The Story lines was more personable; it never had to GO OVER effects ridden to build up this story. It had drama, a love story and a little action. Compared To Armageddon that had... Full review

If I can remember correctly, Armageden (sp) came out around the same time as Deep Impact. Heres the scoop, if you are looking for action, watch the other. Deep Impact really delves more into the emotion of such an occurance, and... Full review

Although Armageddon was a good movie, Deep Impact is much better. The only reason I think so is because they get down to a more personal level when they were making this movie. I cried much more in this movie, and... Full review

Deep Impact hits the bulls eye for sci-fi action thrills and the sheer power of an engrossing adventure that marries plausible ideas with a jump into the beyond.
They cleverly overcome the quandary of balancing total destruction with saving humanity while still utilising great effects.

A waste of resources and talent.
Here's my choice and unlike Old Yeller it has a happy ending but I totally thought Shadow wasn't going to make it to the end.

At the risk of repeating myself: Deep Impact isn't about the audience watching the world end -- it's about us empathizing with the people watching the world end.
Maybe in twenty years Deep Impact will seem as corny as The Poseidon Adventure, but right now it's emotional and involving without being sappy, thanks to Mimi Leder's sensitive direction (sensitive: there's a word you won't hear near most summer blockbusters).

Deep Impact juggles so relentlessly that it seems positively schizo, giving us a little "character development" here and a little mini-disaster there, leading up to the big event -- death from above, the tidal waves and mass destruction, the skyscrapers scattering like petals. ... Full Review
