Happy Monday! Now that we've all sprung forward, it's time to address one of the weekend's other primary cultural matters: Battle: Los Angeles. The number-one movie in America was also one of the most critically reviled of the year -- from Movieline's own Michelle Orange to Roger Ebert, opinions on this ranged from generally disapproving to bitterly angry. But that was before you saw it.
So let's open up the conversation! A $36 million weekend doesn't lie -- a lot of you saw this movie, and now's the time to really let the opinions fly. Among the talking points:
· How about that script?
· Was the shaky-cam maybe a little too shaky?
· How were the CGI?
· How were the aliens?
· How were the cast? (Or does this go back to the script?)
· Was the scene above as silly-looking in the film as it is in the publicity still?
· Sequel?
Etc., etc. Sky's the limit. Let's hear it!
