Destroyed Cities In Movies
These Ten City-Destruction Sequences Are The Most Epic In All Film History
Hey, we said this was a list of the best city destruction sequences in movies, not a list of the best movies featuring cities getting destroyed. On most levels, Armageddon is an absolute garbage heap of a movie. However, when stuff blows up in Armageddon, it’s hard not to be impressed. Director Michael Bay might not be much of a storyteller, or director of actors, or a human capable of understanding women, but he blows stuff up like nobody’s business. The asteroid-fueled carnage in Armageddon is big, colorful, visceral, and pretty. It’s like a Superbowl commercial advertising the appeal of a city getting demolished by space rocks produced at a cost of roughly $1 million per minute. If you can ignore absolutely every other aspect of movie (especially that horrible Aerosmith song), Armageddon is a damn good bit of destruction porn. Shame about all the other scenes though.
