I've always preferred Deep Impact over Armageddon in the 1998 impact event double feature. Deep Impact focuses more on the lives on Earth and how they come to terms with the impact event as opposed to the gung-ho feel of Armageddon. We only spend a small portion of the film with the astronauts sent to destroy the comet but they ultimately make the sacrifice to save the planet. (Reuploaded to fix the frame rate)

I liked Armageddon better, more cheesy
Good review, but why the misleading clickbait title?
I also love the seriousness of the president of the United States, in a white pullover, tattoos exposed, disregarding professional protocol to deliver the news that the planet is doomed except for those who have been selected for the arks. It’s such a raw human moment. Nothing else to do but to just warn the world to do what you must do to try to survive if you can.
