Review For Battleship
Once the special effects take over, Berg has little room to assert his personality (or tell a story, for that matter), and the movie feels like a chore. Ben Sachs-Chicago Reader Battleship is substantially less awful than it could have been. And for me, that may have been the biggest disappointment of all. Christopher Orr-The Atlantic If the movie is anything like the game, I say stay at home and read a good book (or graphic novel). Or listen to an audiobook - In short, do anything else. Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor Big loud stupid dopey shameless cliched overbearing and did I mention stupid? Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com One can be sure that heroic characters get what they want, bond with enemies, and earn respect. Adam Litovitz-Globe and Mail "Battleship" doesn't sink, really. It just sits there booming endlessly as you look on aghast. Tom Long-Detroit News This cheap-looking dung heap doesn't even bother hiding its contempt for paying audiences, and the lack of pretension almost justifies the cynicism on display. Rob Humanick-Projection Booth What starts out as a seriously tense naval war thriller ends up being Pearl Harbour II: Intergalactic Boogaloo. Ali Gray-TheShiznit.co.uk All you'll find here is guilt at having wasted your time for no pleasure. Steve Wright-SciFiNow Battleship is a movie that is enjoyable beyond expectation, but doesn't offer much more than the fast-food-style fun of a summer movie spectacle. Kofi Outlaw-ScreenRant It's not satire, it doesn't play on two levels like Starship Troopers, it's just s---... As a piece of miscalculated, American wankery, it is almost unparalleled. Adam Ross-The Aristocrat Watch the movie for its spectacle and nothing else. Kevin Carr-7M Pictures Peter Berg's Battleship is a sinking disaster that rarely stays afloat, but Universal's Blu-Ray disc is a finely tuned presentation that will put your HDTV and surround sound to the test. Jeremy Lebens-We Got This Covered A silly summer popcorn flick that tries too hard to be witty and tongue-in-cheek while still embracing its deadly serious commitment to being the ultimate blow-em-up action extravaganza. Kristal Cooper-We Got This Covered It really should have been obvious to everyone involved that it was going to turn out like this. Jeff Beck-Examiner.com Believe it or not, no one ever says the game's signature line. So, lets say it here, all together and with enthusiasm, "You sunk my Battleship!" Brian Holcomb-CinemaBlend.com It appears a Hollywood boardroom has scraped the bottom of the barrel of originality to come up with a very long, very loud movie with almost nothing new to say. Justin Craig-FoxNews.com It can't even muster any "so bad it's good" credentials. Rob Vaux-Sci-Fi Movie Page Direction is sharp, but the dull assembly line story damages this hokey action picture that's occasionally so bad it's good. R. L. Shaffer-IGN DVD Battleship is to chicken burritos what The Avengers was to shawarma. William Bibbiani-CraveOnline It's common to hear bloated, special-effects-driven blockbusters described as 'dumb fun'. Unfortunately there's very little that could be described as 'fun' in Battleship. There is, however, a whole lotta 'dumb'. Jordan Farley-SFX Magazine Maybe it wasn't too smart to turn this Hasbro game into an alien-invasion movie. Kirk Honeycutt-honeycuttshollywood.com For an action flick that starts to sink right out of port, 'Battleship' does take a clever turn. But, boy, do you have to wait a long time for it to smarten up. Linda Cook-Quad City Times (Davenport, IA) Any movie based on Battleship that doesn't at least throw in a PT boat isn't worthy of the name. Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune ... it sounds incredibly dumb -- and it is, but not without a little fun. Jim Lane-Sacramento News & Review I am a sucker for these kinds of big, dumb action movies (I liked "John Carter" and "The Green Lantern" too), particularly if they have a good deal of science fiction in them, and this one does.
