Really solid character/secondary actor, can play a good guy well as well as a bad guy. Kind of feel there was an outside chance he could’ve been nominated for a Academy award for best supporting actor in this movie. He really did steal this movie to a certain degree.
And his performance as the dad struggling to reconnect with his wife and son in Armageddon was one of the saving graces of a movie that was otherwise drowning in over-the-top Michael Bay testosterone. Man, the hurt in his eyes was palpable.
I absolutely love Armageddon. I don't care that people think it's over the top or blah blah blah... Will Patton is really amazing in this role. I have always loved the way he delivered the line to his estranged wife: "I got something coming up... something kinda big..."
