L.A. VS Aliens

For our anniversery, my wife and I went to Battle: LA, this was her pick, but I was more than happy to go.  Like several new movies this year the aliens are not friendly.  This seems to be good  for Hollywood; bad world concuring aliens make money. 

Overall this movie was a rocking and rolling good time.  The acting was great, special effects were fenominal.  The camera work was just enough jitter and shake to help carry the mood.  This movie was top notch.

Story:

Overall Battle: LA has a decent storyline.  Marines duking it out with aliens, as they move to secure a group of civilians that were trapped behind alien lines.  Of course, consider a city the size of L.A., why would one small group matter and not the hundreds of others out there.  Don't know?

They go through trials and lose friends.  They battle bitter loss and resentments.  This movie has it all. It made me shed a tear.

The movie ends with.  Right.

Look the special effects rock.  The acting is good.  The battles are amazing, well thought out and filmed.  The aliens and thier tech work.  The aliens are actually very well done.  The tech has just enough rough edges to seat it in reality, and not break the gritty real world feel the filming brings to the movie.

This movie is worth the ticket.
