Seems more on the lines of ‘Skyline’ - a terrible movie.

This is not Will Smith in Independence Day, happily flying around killing bad aliens.

Independence Day is an incredibly stupid movie. I'm amazed that there actually are some intelligent people who like it.

Roger Ebert hated it, so it's probably a great movie.

Roger only likes movies that diss conservatives.

It was ok. No character development, but lots of good action, gunfire and explosions. I guess Hueys were cheaper to get and use than Blackhawks or do the Marines still use Hueys?

Saw it on the early evening showtime and there was a large crowd lined up. I actually wanted to see Drive Angry with Nic Cage, and had to promise my GF she can bring me to any stupid chick movie she wants (I may regret that) but it was damn worth the money.

Just the US Marine Corps saving the worthless city of Los Angeles where I live. 2 thumbs up for an American movie with no libtardism crap which is extremely rare...great sex scene too LOL

Saw this film yesterday. Marines kicking alien a$$ while dealing with their personal lives and problems. Good effects and entertaining with the good guys winning. I liked it.

Oh. That movie.

I thought this was about Battle for Los Angeles on SyFy last evening. It was bad. Cliche.

When Ninja Nia Peoples showed up and stabbed the invader flying machine with her samari sword, that was way beyond jumping the shark.

I saw it last night and enjoyed it very much. The crowd did as well. I go into these movies understanding what they are, which is an entertainment vehicle.

The trailers I've seen look like the production crew stole the computers and software used to make Cloverfield and the story line from Independence Day. Thanks for the review.

From the Halls of Montezuma,
To the shores of Tripoli;
We fight our country’s battles
In the air, on land, and sea;
First to fight for right and freedom
And to keep our honor clean:
We are proud to claim the title
Of United States Marine.

I hate movies set in LA. There is a lot more to Earth than LA.

My 14 year old son and I watched it yesterday.

It was definitely worth the money, and there was some crying in the audience (those who see the movie will now the moment I’m talking about when you see it), but there was genuine pride in seeing our military portrayed as they should be; imperfect heroes.

Absolutely go see this one. Occasionally,Hollywood does something right despite their best efforts, you may as well reward them for it:)

I have to admit I wouldn’t waste a .22 LR defending Los Angeles. The “aliens” have already taken over there. And good riddance.

The g/f and I saw Battle LA friday. It is one of the best 2 or 3 (go to about 3 or 4 a month) movies I have seen in the last year.

EXCEPT for that damn ‘shaky cam’ crap. It's OK during the battle scenes but is irritating during the rest of it.

This movie is junk food for the mind.
But the one I am more looking forward to is Cowboys and Aliens...
