Battlefield Earth


Even though I am a huge science fiction fan, hearing this one was “really” bad, I avoided it until a couple years ago. I forced myself to sit through it. I could not believe just how bad it was. Unfortunately, it doesn’t hit that “so bad it’s good” sweet spot that Plan 9 From Outer Space did.

No other remotely big budget film that I can think of comes remotely close to this one in sheer badness. I did have a couple of LOL moments though and, yess, I mean laughing AT it.

From ridiculous story line viewpoint, Battlefield Earth was epic!

My favorite part was 1000 year old Harriers being flight ready.
