Another great @wiseagent initiative this week. It starts again and this time it's the review of a Guilty Pleasure. https://peakd.com/hive-148441/@wiseagent/league-of-movies-hive-writing-contest-second-edition-or-week-01-guilty-pleasures What's that? Pretty hated movies, destroyed by critics, but you liked them. The fact that others hate them pushes you not to confess your love for that specific film. As soon as I read about the challenge, I immediately understood which film I was going to talk about:

ARMAGEDDON

Directed by Michael Bay, star cast with Bruce Willis, Ben Affleck and Liv Tyler to stand out, but also nominated for 7 Razzie Awards, the awards for the worst film of the year, worst film performance of the year. Personally, I've always been very fond of this film. So much so that I've seen it three times.

If this isn't a Guilty Pleasure what could it be?

Name: League of Movies (Second Edition | Week 01) - Armageddon
Item: Armageddon
Author: @serialfiller

Like almost every Michael Bay movie, this is an apocalyptic film. The earth is in danger of being hit by a meteorite and the world is in danger of near extinction. To save everyone's skin is taken care of by NASA, which recruits a series of drillers to take into space to "defuse" the meteorite. It's a bit funny as a plot I know, it's no coincidence that it deserved 7 nominations at the Razzie Awards!

The film certainly deserves all the criticism received but I do not know why it excites. It's a 1998 movie, the age was the adolescent one for me, the film culture was still scarce. The music of Aerosmith, the liveliness of Steve Buscemi and the drama of the mission did the rest. And then there was a beautiful and very sweet Liv Tyler who didn't play an irrelevant role. Armageddon was therefore a sin of youth that I proudly claim. I was amused by the light moments in the film, I was very moved by the final scenes, the sacrifice of the men who came from the earth, the interactions between the protagonists. Pleasant, dramatic and light. Hurt, improbable, scripted with feet? Yes, absolutely yes, but still my timeless Guilty Pleasure.

Altra stupenda iniziativa dell'ottimo @wiseagent quella di questa settimana. Si ricomincia e stavolta si riparte dalla review di un Guilty Pleasure. https://peakd.com/hive-148441/@wiseagent/league-of-movies-hive-writing-contest-second-edition-or-week-01-guilty-pleasures Cosa sono? Film abbastanza odiati, distrutti dalla critica ma che a voi son piaciuti. Il fatto che gli altri li odino vi spinge a non confessare il vostro amore per quello specifico film. Appena ho letto della sfida ho immediatamente capito di quale film avrei parlato:

ARMAGEDDON

Regia di Michael Bay, cast stellare con Bruce Willis, Ben Affleck e Liv Tyler a spiccare, ma anche candidato a 7 Razzie Awards ovvero i premi per il peggior film dell'anno, peggiori performance cinematofrafiche dell'anno. Personalmente sono sempre stato molto affezionato a questo film. Cosi tanto da averlo visto 3 volte.

Se non è questo un Guilty Pleasure quale potrebbe esserlo?

Come praticamente tutti i film di Michael Bay anche questo è un film apocalittico. La terra rischia di essere colpita da un meteorite ed il mondo rischia la quasi totale estinzione. A salvare la pelle a tutti ci pensa la NASA, la quale recluta una serie di trivellatori da portare nello spazio per "disinnescare" il meteorite. Fa un po ridere come trama lo so, non a caso si è meritato 7 nominations ai Razzie Awards!

Il film merita sicuramente tutte le critiche ricevute ma non so perchè emoziona. E' un film del 1998, l'età era quella adolescenziale per me, la cultura cinematografica era ancora scarsa. Le musiche degli Aerosmith, la vivacità di Steve Buscemi e la drammaticità della missione hanno fatto il resto. E poi c'era una Liv Tyler bellissima e dolcissima che non ha giocato un ruolo irrilevante. Armageddon è stato dunque un peccato di gioventù che rivendico fieramente. Mi divertivano i momenti leggeri presenti nel film, mi hanno emozionato molto le scene finali, il sacrificio degli uomini venuti dalla terra, le interazioni fra i protagonisti. Piacevole, drammatico e leggero. Fatto male, improbabile, sceneggiato coi piedi? Si, assolutamente si, ma comunque il mio intramontabile Guilty Pleasure.

I can say, Armageddon was the first film I watched, the first time watching it when I was in elementary school, not understanding anything just taking its excitement.

I didn't like movies before. Especially foreign films, my eyes tired of reading the text that appears on the screen.

But when I grew up, I watched it several times again, either intentionally or by chance airing on television. This film is very memorable. Some cool quotes that I found from this film are:

"Drilling isn't a science, it is an art."

"I am only the best because I work with the best, You don't trust the man you're working with, you are as good as dead."

There were several epic scenes to add to the drama of this film. Father's conflict that disagrees with the girl who loves one of Harry's crew, the family conflict of Chick (Will Patton), the heroic attitude, the struggle for opinion with the central government, and others. But there are also many moral messages that can be learned namely the sincere love of the father, trust in the team, a strong sense of family, and friendship. excited movies.

If this isn't a Guilty Pleasure what could it be?
