After dinner with a friend, we settled on going to see the latest offering at the cinema - Battle: Los Angeles. I must say that I prefer to attend movies with low expectations in mind, that way I'm either pleasantly surprised, or not... But at any rate, I spent the first half of this movie trying to get the nausea in my stomach under control from the hand-held camera the cinematographer decided to use. After that, I was able to relax into a nice adrenal rush. Half 'Blackhawk Down', half 'Independence Day', there were some gripping, and not so gripping moments in this one. This fellow here:
He had some great lines... until the dialogue swung more toward ID4 at the end of his monologue; then cue the uplifting score. Ah well, I guess it can't all be gritty. Anyway, my suggestion, don't eat before you go see this...
Adieu.
