The movies "Armageddon" and "Deep Impact" each have a number of distinct errors in their storyline and details. These errors, although hidden at first, must be criticized, due to their significance in the world of science. Some parts of each movie are more important to note as being false than others, and these will be reviewed.
The movie "Armageddon", which was watched in class, involved impending doom due to an asteroid on a collision course with Earth. Bruce Willis, the best oil-driller in the world, as well as his crew, including Ben Affleck, are selected by the U.S government to go into space and detonate nuclear warheads inside the asteroid. After a slingshot maneuver around the moon using the force of gravity, they drill and set the warheads, and other drama and exciting subplots ensue. Willis stays behind to detonate the warheads, just before the zero-barrier mark, and the Earth is saved.

The second film, "Deep Impact", was released in the same year as "Armageddon", and has a nearly identical crisis, except with a comet, instead of an asteroid. U.S and Russia build the biggest spaceship ever, to drill nuclear warheads into the comet. These warheads breaks the comet into two, but a barrage of missiles are fired to stop the two comets, but these fail as well. The first comet hits, with massive tidal waves. The second, bigger part of the original comet is destroyed when the spaceship beats it back to earth, turns around, and torpedoes directly into the comet with yet even more nuclear warheads that are left over inside. Millions are lost from the tidal wave, but life goes on.
