Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
mackdenny Anyone with smidgen of knowledge (especially regarding WWII) will love this movie for it's mistakes. Like having an Army pilot flying a F4U Corsair while wearing a Soviet tankers hat(?-at least that's what it looks like), not to mention F-16 pilots with the stick between their legs. Oh and pay attention to the M-16's that fire fully auto but no casings go out!. Really I put it up there with "Plan 9 From Outer Space" so bad it is fun to watch. I have to put at least ten lines for this review to be put up, which would be SO easy for all the mistakes this 'film' contains. Geesh, I hafta make up even more words for this review to go through. Really, if you are like me and enjoy a really bad movie from time to time, this is one you might like, especially if you are a history buff.
Alvin Vega The title lured into thinking that this film is Battle: Los Angeles. It took me about five minutes to realize that Battle of Los Angeles is just a crappy "mockbuster", which has a confusingly similar title with the A-class film I thought I'm going to watch. I was first disappointed and angry, but then decided to keep watching. What a terrible mistake! BoLA was unimaginable torture until the end and I'm still not over the shock. I registered to IMDb just to review this film and warn anyone from watching. All the other reviewers are not lying, trust me! Okay, except those who seemingly thought they reviewed B:LA and a few who obviously work for either SyFy or The Asylum. Anyway, BoLA is a perfection of failure: acting, script, characters, special effects, everything... they simply suck. For example, it seems that they bought a Nerf gun from Toys "R" Us, painted it, and alas, there's your advanced alien weapon. What's really sad - or should I say hilarious -is that the director thought a retired sergeant shooting down alien space vessels with a Colt SA .44 six-shooter and a woman - who owes much to Resident Evil's Alice - slicing the flying probes with her Katana look cool. This being said, I actually enjoyed finding the numerous tributes to major sci-fi blockbusters such as Independence Day, Star Wars (EPs 4 and 6), Aliens, MIB, and so on. This film has more rip-off ideas from big-name movies than any other film I have seen.
cobra_freak_006 this movie was so bad i decided to make a booze run because i had to be hammered to even watch it. like with everything i watch i don't base it off of crappy graphics (which there were plenty of) i base it off of the story which was pure... well i would say sh*t but thats not even bad enough to explain how horrible it was. seriously whoever though it would be cool to bring a katana to a alien invasion and attempt to make it look good must of been retarded or watches too much anime. The Title of the movie often confuses people with Battle: Los Angeles which was awesome. if you see this movie thinking you are going to watch Battle: Los Angeles then you will be disappointed.
michael-d-mccarthy I managed to sit through about 20 minutes of this total garbage. Fortunately, it was on TV, so I hadn't spent money on it - though it was so bad I actually object to the waste of electricity... Dire acting, amateurish CGI attempts, virtually no plot or characterisation. What a turkey... How on earth anyone could release this for general screening is totally beyond me, and the fact that it even made it to the cinema is quite unbelievable. Who on earth put up the money for this?... And then saw it through all the way to release? Surely at some point along the way someone in authority should have seen how dire it all was, and called a halt just for the sake of wasting no more money. It doesn't even get into the category - 'so bad it became funny'. Just plain awful...
