It is so good. I don't like to hype things up a lot but fo' real, watch it
Armageddon never fails to have me in tears! :cry: Last time I watched it, I was crying at parts I'd never cried at before. That last scene in particular when they're walking back towards their families turns me into a sobbing wreck!! :cry2:

Titanic is the only other film I've cried at. :sad:

I have a confession, I cried at the end of Dark Knight Rises. I don't know if anyone else cried at that movie but I'm a big fan of Batman and the trilogy and Christopher Nolan and thought the end was sad :grin:
I also cried a little during Frozen, I just found it really touching :tongue:

I saw this at the cinema and there was a grown man weeping behind me.

Movies can't really make me cry, and I'm very picky about them and the characters anyway, but some have left me feeling completely drained. 'Enter the Void', and to a lesser extent, 'Requiem for a Dream', 'Valhalla Rising', 'The Machinist'... are all very bleak and depressing, I felt dead after watching them. They're probably not like the other movies listed though, it's not empathetic sadness.
For empathetic sadness, I'm going to stand completely alone and say that 'When the Last Sword is Drawn' is a very sad movie. Samurai just have what it takes to get to me p;
