Plot Synopsis
Storyline
Los Angeles and other cities around the world are being bombarded by meteors that seem to be slowing down once they hit the earth's atmosphere. The earth is suddenly being invaded by space aliens that have landed off the shore of LA, and who begin killing everybody along the beach. The military is ordered into action. Marine Staff Sergeant Nantz (Aaron Eckhart), who was about to retire, is reassigned to a new platoon. The platoon, flown by chopper to the forward operating base at Santa Monica Airport, is being led by a new 2nd Lt. Martinez (Ramon Rodriguez). They are sent on a mission to rescue some civilians who are trapped at the police station within alien territory. They only have 3 hours to complete their mission and get out before the Air Force bombs that zone. Written by Douglas Young (the-movie-guy)

Reporter on TV: ...an unprecedented meteor shower falling off the coast of Tokyo. The entire city is mesmerized by this incredible sight. Two hours after the first contact, an unidentified enemy has reached our coastlines in a swift and militaristic attack. Right now one thing is clear: The world is at war.

Battle: Los Angeles is a film that you watch and have fun with. Don't go in expecting something complex like Citizen Kane or the Godfather. If you love the Call of Duty games, Modern War movies like The Hurt Locker or Black Hawk Down, and can have fun like Dawn of the Dead or Starship Troopers, you'll love this.
If you hate War and Violence, then stay away from this cause you're heading into a Pro-Military, near recruitment add. So many teens in both of my screenings expressed how "awesome" it would be to be a Marine. As some would say, its a "Man Movie".
Aaron Eckhart proves again that he a great actor but when will Hollywood recognize this? We need to start seeing Eckhart in more roles like this, he was a terrific bad ass and defiantly delivered great.
Overall, 9/10
Remember to have fun!
