Battle: Los Angeles Movie Review

Posted by January 15, 2012

Starting from an alien invasion alien attacks in various parts of the earth, Battle of Los Angeles tells about a group of U.S. Marines platoon of soldiers against the alien invasion is on the battlefield city of Los Angeles.

City of Los Angeles which was once famous for its beauty and glamor now transformed into a terrifying battleground. If you ever watch the movie Cloverfield and black hawk dawn you may be aware of both the film’s blend into the Battle of Los Angeles.

If the point of view of the movie Cloverfield based on the perspective of civil society affected by an alien invasion, the Battle of Los Angeles in the movie you’ll see the point of view of the Marines who struggled to survive from the attack after attack. If you see the hustle and bustle of the battle in the war film Black Hawk Dawn, then you also will see it in the movie Battle of Los Angeles but this time his opponent is an alien.

Sharpness presented the story of the film Battle of Los Angeles, in my opinion enough to make our adrenalin peaked when gunfire and explosions combined into one. Not only that you will see a battle that you’ve never seen before in movies other war-film genre.

The story of this film is not too full war throughout the film, sometimes in several scenes we’ll be treated to atmospheric drama inspiration from the conflict in the film. We will carry a very tense atmosphere. But after that we will be brought back into the atmosphere of conflict ever subside.

I think the movie Battle of Los Angeles deserves two thumbs up and thumbs rating that I give any overall.
