Battle: Los Angeles

broderic on March 21, 2011

It is true about what the critics have been saying about Battle: Los Angeles. It really is a movie made up of all the action flick cliche’s you’ve already seen.

Let’s check off some movies that Battle: Los Angeles is indebted to. Black Hawk Down, Alien, Aliens, District 9, Saving Private Ryan, Bourne Identity, 300, ID4, Transformers, War of the Worlds, Avatar. The list goes on and on. I even threw in movies I’m not so sure was in there, but no doubt with squinty eyes they can be.

That said I enjoyed it still. This will be one of those movies on TNT or TBS that you’ll watch whenever its on.

3 of 5 stars.

MD 88 is 5 seats wide. The overhead bins are small and not too tall. Going west by south is stupid ridiculous. Once doors are closed we're sealed in. Sitting in an airplane on the middle of the Tarmac looking like we are on the take off lane!How is it that I got a longer wait in Atlanta again. I've been here twice and I've spent more time waiting for a plane than I had ever done flying here. Atlanta airport metro running slow. Nice breakfast at Brioche Doureé. French. Croissant. Ham egg and cheese. You'll find it on concourse A hidden by the bookstore. Went to concourse A. Now back in concourse B. Did not take the Metro.
