Movie Review: Battle Los Angeles

Tags: Movie Review, Battle Los Angeles, L.A., alien invasion, marines What is a year in the movies without aliens invading, trying to wipe out the human race? It’s a staple in Hollywood nowadays. Battle Los Angeles revolves around a Marine Staff Sergeant Michael Nantz being called into duty right after his resignation letter got signed. His mission was to assist a young 2nd Lt. William Martinez with the evacuation of civilians in L.A. that is currently under siege from an unknown force. And that unknown force is, well you guessed it.. a bunch of super powered aliens that came from nowhere to take over the planet. In just after a few hours, the whole world succumbs into this incursion. The movie follows along the recent line of Hollywood flicks that probably took it’s strongest root from the 1996 film Independence Day (which i loved). With that, Battle LA doesn’t present anything new from the premise of the story to the style that it was delivered.
