“WORLD INVASION: BATTLE LOS ANGELES”
Basically, this film is a cross between Black Hawk Down and Skyline. To its credit, the battle sequences themselves seem fairly well staged. The acting is better than the movie deserves. There’s an attempt to characterise each platoon member.
In combat, the aliens are mostly unseen except at a distance or in quick flashes. Technically the movie is swell; the FX are pretty seamless and the production design is fairly unique. All that being said, everything else falls down.
A Marine Staff Sergeant who has just had his retirement approved goes back into the line of duty in order to assist a 2nd Lieutenant and his platoon as they fight to reclaim the city of Los Angeles from alien invaders.
