Vulcann 6th Gear April 9, 2011 Share April 9, 2011 (edited) Felt like Independence Day II.. Battle scenes rather intense. Against the vicious & advance-tech alien hordes, weapons of the marines & the US forces in general machiam sticks & pitch forks. The marines have to empty an entire clip to bring down just 1 fouled creature-that's intense! Then again the story goes really linear & audience sorta know what's gona happen when our gunny hero volunteered to go on a suicide mission & his faithful rag tag team decided to follow him. That tough nails air force babe acted in many many action shows, like hollywood has got no such actress to take on this type of roles. She had starred in Lost, Avatar, etc. Just a typical US action-packed see-&-forget show lo.... Edited April 9, 2011 by Vulcann Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chay thought u say not worth spending $$$ to watch? Througout no chance to actually see how the aliens look like hor? The part where they frag the pool to kill off the injured alien showed how difficult to waste them... Generally action-packed & no dull moments but the ending like Independence Day quite anti-climax.

Ngck 3rd Gear April 9, 2011 Share April 9, 2011 Who liked this movie ah?

Maybe they mastered the Taichi way of 以柔制刚, using minimal effort to fend off maximum ones That's why to us it seemed anti-climax lo. Skyline? What's the show like?

Vulcann 6th Gear April 10, 2011 Share April 10, 2011 (edited) yup... quite ridiculous .. the plot shall be... mothership uncovered...and sent a fleet to destroy it... Ya lo to slug it out the alien species with the US Seventh Fleet for example. Would love to see Arleigh Burke-class launching missiles to take down a alien mother ship or a Abrams punching through a alien attack column or a F-35 doing a dog fight with a alien UAV- that will be cool man! Have a do or die grand battle between, say, a surviving but heavily damaged Virginia-class launching it's last Mk48 torpedo to sink a almost invincible alien marine vessel will be interesting to watch. Wonder how the US armed forces view all these action-packed battle scenes that portrayed them as roll over & die 3rd class fighting units ?

Ysc3 Twincharged April 10, 2011 Share April 10, 2011 Skyline? What's the show like? 90% close to Battle of LA .... except at the end, the aliens win ... and only left one mutant ex-human (alien body with original-human brain)... trying to save his gf from the rest of the aliens. something like SPAWN !!

Sgnick 1st Gear April 10, 2011 Share April 10, 2011 worst Sci-fi movie - Cloverfield !! period. Skyline and Cloverfield is both as bad. War of the World too, by TomPuss. I find that to describe Battle Los Angelos, just see it as Saving Private Ryan fast forward to modern day, and change the Germans and their tanks to Aliens. Is the same squad level war movie.
