      worth seeing

      If I summed up the storyline of the film in one sentence, it would usually be about the story of the people on Earth resisting the alien invasion.
          But it's actually not so much the story itself as the context in which the story unfolds.
          Overall, this is a film about responsibility, courage and sacrifice. In the test of life and death on the battlefield, the commander bears enormous pressure and responsibility. Every judgment and every order may determine the success or failure...

      I enjoyed this movie so much!

      On a Friday night, I wanted to watch a movie to relax, and I ended up watching this movie. It looks cool. The plot is gripping, in one go. It doesn't feel like other American films, there is no strong Americanism. The story is actually very simple, finished in one sentence: A team of American soldiers successfully rescued civilians in a war zone. There are so many similar stories, from "Wild Geese Expendables" to "Brave the Dead Island". But it feels like this movie is different. The leadership...

      Battle: Los Angeles (2011)

      Battle: Los Angeles, a movie about aliens invading the earth to snatch water resources, a typical American heroism movie.

      The entire Los Angeles was occupied, and the U.S. military only sent a few planes and tanks, and a small Marine Corps unit became the focus and turning point of the entire battle. This is really a bit unrealistic... Also, the U.S. military actually believes that it comes from the universe. The high-intelligence lifeform only has land forces, and as a result, the...

      "Battle of Los Angeles": Old Ji Fuzheng, the Jedi Strikes Back

      The story line of "Battle of Los Angeles" is very clear and simple. It revolves around a group of American soldiers performing a rescue mission to civilians in distress. During this period, they experienced life-and-death battles with aliens one after another. Under the leadership of the veteran, the Jedi counterattacked and successfully took out the alien's nest in Los Angeles. There are no superfluous side details, just dazzling graphics and deafening explosions. Unlike the blasting expert...

      "Battle of Los Angeles" is a "three no-products", no IQ, no brains, no plot, and the story is straight to the point without any accident. The aliens come to earth to be the living targets of human beings. They have simple minds, developed limbs, and nothing advanced. Weapons, GI's job is to keep firing, firing, Lone Hero keeps playing individualism, with deafening gunfights, I don't see the hero save the world again, but fall asleep...

    Movie plot

    On a calm morning, countless bright rays of light flashed across the sky of major cities in the world . At first, NASA thought it was comet fragments passing through the atmosphere. Then it was shocked that these fragments seemed to be creeping, and the fragments fell into the sea, and then they changed. Personal weapons attacked coastal cities around the world.

    The Battle of Los Angeles Foreign Media Evaluation

    The film has an original and exciting force that impacts the audience. ("Chicago Tribune" review)
    In this battle against alien invasion, you can hardly get any spiritual help except wishing the virtual Marines to fight bravely and return in triumph. ("Los Angeles Times" review)
    The movie is like a video game. The audience watched the director holding the handle and shooting the aliens. (Comment on "Detroit...)

    Traditional film recording

    Unlike previous sci-fi themes of the same type, "Battle of Los Angeles" adopts documentary-style shooting techniques and editing techniques, not only in terms of plot arrangement and visual effects, but also the realism of the terrorist invasion is as if it were personally experienced. As a special effects movie with a big production scene, the director has put a lot of effort into choosing the way to express the war scenes. The...

    Movie quotes

    • Sgt. Major: At 14:46 Pacific Standard Time, 12 different locations around the world were breached, in what appears to be a coordinated attack by an unknown enemy. All breaches were along the coastline, in what is a campaign of rapid dominance. This is a textbook military invasion. There are massive casualties in New York, defensive lines are being setup in Boston, and at 13:15 Zulu Time we lost communications with San Francisco and San Diego, their status is unknown. What we do know is that we are the LAST offensive force on the west coast, we can NOT lose Los Angeles.

    • Lt. Col. K.N. Ritchie: We have an infestation of God-knows-what in there but they are NOT from this Earth and we gotta hit them with everything we got! They are a ground force enemy only, so the Air Force will tear them a new asshole and we *will* rule the air! Now you got 3 hours to get your ass back before those bombs drop, and make no mistake THEY WILL DROP! with... or without you.
