4.0 out of 5 stars It made me laugh, cry, and sit on the edge of my seat., July 30, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Armageddon: A Novel (Paperback)
I loved the movie and the book was just as good! It takes the action and drama of the movie and puts it into words that i could have never imagined to use.

1.0 out of 5 stars I've read MANY, MANY movie tie-in books..., April 10, 2004
This review is from: Armageddon: A Novel (Paperback)
I've read MANY, MANY movie tie-in books, and I like them! I think they're great. They give extra descriptions, and usually include small scenes that weren't in the movie. Part of the reason is because they're usually written straight from the script. BUT, most authors try and give some more insight to the scenes occurring. They do RESEARCH. They explore CHARACTER. In short, they give new dimensions to the source material that aren't evident on the screen.

Having said all of that, the novelization of Armageddon sucks. I think I read it faster than the movie takes to watch (never a good sign). It felt like a junior adult/children's adaptation. It was a joke. I was extremely disappointed. And I've got MANY examples to which to compare. This is by far one of the worst movie novelizations I've ever read.

It could've been really good, too. The movie was fantastic. That's what makes it all the worse.

By A Customer
This review is from: Armageddon: A Novel (Paperback)
The book was great, but not as great as the movie. In the book the great scenes are so diffrent as in the movie. But I love the movie and if anyone of you would like to know and see more about THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER MADE: ARMAGEDDON, then just visit this site: http://kino.freepage.de/cs/
