Battleship

Loud, mindless, predictive explosive fare that's a bit too long. Either that or it's just draggy. Undemanding entertainment. Lead actor Taylor Kitsch is too pretty to be a bona fide action hero, whereas the criminally under utilised Liam Neeson would have been more realistic. I can even buy Eric Northman...ermm...I mean Alexander Skarsgaard. The most entertaining segment was the "Battleship" sequence the movie was based on. Again, the aliens were too generic, too Halo-esque. I'm surprised Rihanna did not contribute to the soundtrack nor sucked in her first feature show. Navy boys might enjoy it just a bit more.
