The story begins when NASA discovers that the gigantic asteroid is only 18 days away from destroying the Earth. NASA asks Harry to prevent the deadly asteroid from reaching our planet.

The film is filled with suspense as the men race against time to save the planet.

The special effects and computer graphics are so spectacular and realistic that the audience will be amazed. The actors give a brilliant performance and the directing is superb. What is more, the soundtrack is fantastic.

Tom Cruise stars as Elthan Hunt, a man who sees his close colleagues being murdered one by one. He has reason to believe that there is a traitor involved.

The hero, with the help of two agents, tries to discover who the traitor is.

The film has some spectacular special effects and stunts. There’s enough action to keep the plot going without being bored.

“101 Dalmatians” is an amusing film for the whole family! Don’t miss it!

“The lost world: Jurassic Park” is an exciting film. It’s a must!

“Father of the Bride” is a funny film, suitable for old and young. It’s a well worth going to see.

If you like excitement, I thoroughly recommend “Armageddon”. It will keep you on the edge of your seat. Don’t miss it!
