When mankind beams a radio signal into space, a reply comes from ‘Planet G’, in the form of several alien crafts that splash down in the waters off Hawaii. Lieutenant Alex Hopper is a weapons officer assigned to the USS John Paul Jones, part of an international naval coalition which becomes the world's last hope for survival as they engage the hostile alien force of unimaginable strength. While taking on the invaders, Hopper must also try to live up to the potential that his brother, and his fiancée's father—an Admiral—expect of him.

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

I watched this because I wanted something light that I could just watch and not think about. If you do think about it, it's obvious that the whole battle doesn't make any sense, but you don't want to think about that too much. You can see that Battleship borrows quite a lot from other science fiction: War of the Worlds, Star Trek, Pacific Rim, for example. All in all it's not too bad. I'm being generous but I'm giving it a 7/10.

My gosh! Aliens can travel faster than light but don't see in the night or in the sun. Seems a Second World War scene. Interesting more for Us Japan friendship against an enemy too much human and too much weak so you can easily beat it together.

I confess that I haven't actually watched this movie. I've only seen snippets while channel surfing. Now we all know(at some level)these films are fraudulent. They're really about indulging desires to vicariously experience violence, destruction, turmoil. Perhaps it's cathartic for some, perhaps something else for others. The fig leaves of virtue don't really fool anyone. Especially with the quantity and excesses of these films. Now I'm not a big fan of CCR or the song Fortunate Son, but using an anti-war song to promote this trash? OK, so you don't respect audiences, art, other performers. By why do you need to besmirch a legitimate and sincere moral viewpoint. If you disagree at least have enough courage and respect for yourself to do it openly. It's been amply demonstrated there are innumerable ways to corrupt and debase through mass media. So nothings off the table? Are films being checked for subliminal imaging? I know there have been some cases in the past.
