Battle: Los Angeles

Well, what can I say? This film takes itself FAR too seriously. I was expecting a bit of fun like Starship Troopers or Independence Day, a good action sci-fi flick with a bit of humour and a brilliant feel good film of earth conquering the alien enemy. Instead we got endless amount of close-ups of gritty sweaty faces with angry stares. Endless amounts of irritating real hardcore military drumming music (mainly used in the close-ups of gritty sweaty faces with angry stares) and endless amonts of "god damn it", "hooooahhh" and other cheesey one liners that had no place in this film. Either make it serious or make it cheesey and fun....don't do a half way house and expect it to work. My mate Tubbs just stood up at the end and said "that was dog ****". I think he summed it up well.

It's a shame though, because it could have been a really good and different type of film, if they had just cut some of the crap. But it totally ruined it for me.

2/10
