  BATTLE:LA

  by ryanmcgregor

  Best war movie in a long time! you need to go see this action/war movie ASAP. Do not wait until it comes out on DVD to see it, its a must see in the theaters! If you liked movies like, Greenzone, or District 9 and Black Hawk Down maybe the Hurt Locker and Independence day, Battle La has all of those movies in it alone! If they don't make a part 2 of the move ill blow a nut... GO SEE THIS MOVIE :) Good acting, good action, it has some good drama in it, and even some sad moments. It has awesome picture and CG (computer generation). I'm 15 and I loved it! My dad loved it! Even my 12 year old sister liked it! This movie is surprisingly awesome for kids, ESPECIALLY TEENS and even Adults! OK ill shut up... But just do yourself a favor and go see the movie. Peace

  Awesome

  by RAZORBACK2299

  This is the best movie I have seen in awhile. The acting to me was good because you could feel the emotion from the characters. People giving this a negative review need to watch it again. If you know nothing of teamwork or serving or watching your closest friends get hurt or killed then you won't understand the emotion I am talking about. Very good movie.

  Frag out!!! This is a must see!!

  by Biggie21

  Saw the midnight showing and was blown away. This movie is on such a huge scale and I personally was expecting a lot but this went beyond what I was expecting. There are no force fields and when you shoot the aliens they die(even though it is hard to kill them) you see this movie through Marines eyes and you never get a sense they were doing anything that real Marines wouldn't do in that situation.The acting is great other than Michelle Rodriguez but we should all be used to that by now. There is also a good amount of human drama, and you see a lot of what real soldiers have to deal with like leaving their wife and kid or losing a loved one. This movie is stunning and will have you gasping for breath then deliver a great and pulse pounding ending!! People who say this movie is cliche are just looking for a reason to not like it. Go see this movie then go see it again because I promise you will want to!! Retreat hell!!

  New Favorite

  by

  This movie was intense from the start and it kept you going through to the end. It is like a more realistic and better-made Starship troopers. Acting was good and believable. Definitely recommend and I will see again and I will own this.

  Retreat? Hell!

  by

  Came back from Battle: Los Angles presently surprised. I've been wanting to see this film since I saw the first trailer last year. Aaron Eckhart did a great job as a tortured, conflicted, yet heroic Marine. The only person I didn't care for was Bridget's character. However, this film was intense, emotional (certain moments in the film where you wondered if the platoon will make it out alive), the score by Brian Tyler was amazing, the look of the aliens were unique. They coordinate their attacks, move behind for cover, and carry their wounded much like the Marines do. I really appreciated the themes of bravery and perseverance in the face of incredible odds. To me, it made me feel proud to be a American because our military does a great job. Definitely going to check it out again soon. It's Saving Private Ryan, but with aliens. If you're a fan of war films or alien invasion films, then this film is right up your alley. Don't listen to those idiotic, lame critics, go see it for yourself

  GET UP AND SEE IT.

  by samomoney20

  If your in the military or your immediate family are in the military you all have to see this movie. Story line was a slap in the face type action with the drama to hold you closer to each character. I would go see it again right now if I wasn't standing duty. So get up and go see it for me.

  A good war movie

  by univex

  This isn't a scifi movie, it's a war movie about fighting aliens. I greatly appreciated its depiction of the U.S. Marine Corps culture. Very good action and a strong performance from Aaron Ekhart.
  
  Loved the previous review's lament about cliches. It's a war movie. Of course it's full of cliches. So is Hamlet.

  Really Good Movie!

  by lilybugs

  My teenage son and his friend insisted I come with to see this movie. I figured it would either be VERY good or dumb enug to laugh at. It was soo worth my time and THEIR money. he
  Has good documdrama like filiming at times. Mostly realistic as can be with aliens attacking us being the theme of the film.
  Some good laughs in the film too. Just wouldn've preferred not to be with my teen son & friend for a few of the sexual references. lol But funny.
  Action packed doesn't do it justivce!
  The ending wasn't tied up superquick l.ike some films do now. They give u credit for having a brain and knowing the whole war can't end in that short of time. But it gives a clue of how it should go.
  Only downfall was that for some cahracters, they just are forgotten after their brief time on film and you're left wanteing to know what happened to them?????????
  Otherwise, very good.
  Theater packed more than I've ever seen before and all seemed to enjoy film.
  Just leave little ones home!!!!

  Pleasantly surprised

  by brocktoon

  I am not a big fan of CGI graphics and short, choppy scenes where you can't tell what is going on, so I went into the movie thinking it would stink. However, it's a decent action flick. Ran a little longer than it had to, but still had a nice flow and likable characters.

  A Great Surprise

  by jsison26

  After watching the previews, I concluded that Battle: LA is not my type of movie.
  
  It was my boyfriends turn to choose the movie and guess what he chose? Battle: LA...after about 10 minutes I was hooked. The movie turned out amazingly awesome. It was actually a tear jerker, which made the movie 10x better than I expected. I think I'm going to let my boyfriend pick the movies from now on.
