I really wanna see this movie :D

battle_la

Its been awhile since I've seen something brainless and entertaining with lots of explosions, screaming and killing that ends with a typically cliched hollywood ending marketed to a quintessential yankie audience...

surprisingly enough Mien also wants to see it... bizaroo indeed!!

... the last time i enjoyed such frivolities at the movies was during this classic flick :P

Comments ...

I saw the movie over the weekend.

It wasn't too bad. But it wasn't what I was expecting from the TV ads.
Most of the movie centred around a squad of marines that were in LA, rather than the "bigger picture" that the ads seem to portray.
But the special effects were quite good, and the story line ok, if a little clichéd.

It really was too much talking.... not enough action...

the only way a movie like that was ever gonna work was if it scrapped the talking for all out action. like 'cloverfield' or 'black hawk down'.

instead, it just got lost in hugely long and cliched dialogs that was excruciating to watch

I watched Rango over the weekend. I was expecting an amusing kids movie with lots of predictable plot elements. Instead it was a rather odd movie with many movie references that kids will never even know are there.
