I'm not sure why everyone is complaining about this movie. It's an action movie - not a deep social commentary or a romantic comedy.Yeah. It had plenty of implausibilities but so what. Every movie has them.It was well made, hero's and bad guys who had just enough weapons to be dangerous but not dangerous enough to secure the environment.But again. This is a feel good, Cowboys & Indians movie.Well I enjoyed it a lot and I'm kind of hard to please. It simply was not as bad as everyone says it is.I liked the choice of actors even the two from Friday Night Lights.The guy who played the injured sailor was pretty funny.And what's a movie without your resident geek. Check.

I based my initial opinion on the IMDb score and from the odd critic review when this was released. I watched this last night and was pleasantly surprised. its a lot better then I expected. I wont go into detail about the plot etc as its in the summary. the only actors I knew were Liam Neeson and Rhianna. Rhianna was better then most other singers that attempt acting. I think to put this in perspective I will tell you some of my favourite films as I feel if you also like these you will like battleship: transformers, skyline, matrix, avatar, lethal weapon, die-hard, van damme films, terminator 2. (I couldn't list them all. :-) ) ignore the fact the enemy look like transformer. I think the makers have done well turning a very old, guesswork boardgame into a pretty decent movie.

'Battleship' is a Bad-Ass Entertainer! An Out-And-Out Popcorn Entertainer, with Remarkable Action-Sequences, Top-Notch Graphics & Convincing Performances working all the way to its advantage. I had a ball! 'Battleship' Synopsis: A fleet of ships is forced to do battle with an armada of unknown origins in order to discover and thwart their destructive goals.Jon Hoeber & Erich Hoeber's Screenplay offers non-stop entertainment! Its fast, progressive & gives great scope for mind-blasting action. The Action-Sequences are Remarkable! The mainstay of this motion-picture, that has collected over 300 million dollars worldwide! Graphics are Top-Notch! Peter Berg's Direction is highly competent.Performances are Convincing. Taylor Kitsch is worthy as the hero. Alexander Skarsgård is fantastic. Brooklyn Decker is a bonus to any film. Rihanna is pretty raw & ruthless, while the Great Liam Neeson is a joy to watch, as always.On the whole, 'Battleship' is a Winner! Recommended!
