IMDB

This was not as completely awful as I was expecting.  I only watched it because my wife was at work and and I knew she didn’t want to see it, so I rented it from the Redbox (for free).
Aliens attack LA.  The military fights them.  Guns are fired nearly every second of this movie after the initial 20 minute opening.
The special effects are really good.  The performances are fine, although that doesn’t really matter in a movie like this.  This movie is about shit exploding and aliens being shot.  It works, although it is no “District 9.”
Maybe I feel a little bad about giving this a positive review after giving "Captain America" a negative review.  I watched "Captain America" with Rifftrax, which usually makes movies a lot worse.  And I was expecting it to be good, I was expecting this to be stupid, and it was.


6/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
