I kinda liked Battleship. Enjoyed watching the Missouri go into battle. Although I have to concede that the notion of getting it out of mothball status and into action in one afternoon strains credulity, to say the least.

It was better than Avengers.

I saw it today. It was an enjoyable shoot-em-up, although it required extreme suspension-of-disbelief.

The alien weaponry was stupid. An interstellar culture whose weapons cannot dynamically track a moving ship?

And the idea that a mothballed USS Missouri, operating as a museum with daily tour groups, would just happen to have live ordinance and ammunition on board to go into action with, is just nuts.

I should add that while watching Battleship, I had know idea I was watching Rihanna.

Who the hell is Rihanna?
