Recently rewatched both Armageddon and Deep Impact. While the visuals were far superior in Armageddon and focused almost exclusively on the stories of the "heroes", this movie focused on a compelling and emotional narrative that conveyed what a deep impact such an event would have on the "regular" people of Earth. As much as I enjoy Armageddon, I think Deep Impact was simply overshadowed by Armageddon's advertising and big name actors, yet deserves immensely more credit and accomplishes vastly more in the allotted time.
