And so we have yet another stultifying Hollywood blockbuster that substitutes endless fireballs and explosions for real narrative and decent plotting. BATTLESHIP follows in the tradition of the likes of TRANSFORMERS in delivering a movie that's almost chock-full of CGI action and nothing else, resulting in a completely stultifying viewing experience.<br/><br/>The movie starts off on a weak footing, with a lame, jokey first half-hour that attempts to set up characters we're supposed to care about. The weakest of them is unfortunately the lead; this is the guy played by Taylor Kitsch, who ties with the ridiculously-cast Rihanna for giving the most wooden performance in the movie. Needless to say these characters remain cardboard cut-outs throughout, failing to interest the viewer in any discernible way.<br/><br/>So, in the end, we're left with a large-scale game of Battleships with humans and aliens playing each other. And the format quickly becomes repetitive: one side destroys one of the enemy's ships, the other side does the same, and so on, until two and a half hours have passed and the only thing the viewer comes out of this with is a sore neck. The action isn't even very good, relying far too much on sub-par CGI (those spinning wheel things look horrendous) and clichéd scenarios.<br/><br/>All of the older actors in the film (like Liam Neeson) are asked to sit around and look serious, while of the young cast, the only one who stands out is Tadanobu Asano (who turned out to be one of the leads in TOKYO ZOMBIE, who knew?) who delivers a halfway-decent performance. And so it goes on, and on and on, with maximum drama and destruction all the way through, leaving the viewer feeling jaded, bored and ultimately hollow by the whole experience.
I read a lot of bad reviews about this movie and a lot of jokes about the whole 'making a movie based on 'battleship' thing'. But when it said 'from the makers of Transformers', did you really expect something more than 130 minutes of special effects? Do you really go pay to watch a movie with deep characters good laughs and memorable action- nope, if your'e smart, you know exactly what you're paying for. Apart from the introduction, this movie is exactly what its suppose to be, big things shooting at other big things, large explosions, building falling down, and a lot of noise. Visually, there is a lot of dedication here in making destruction seem believable. Of course, you gotta have those cheesy moments of inspiration, dramatic music, the hero returns- just emphasizing how predictable it is and how many times you've seen it before. Ill recommend it to anyone who wants an action movie, who doesn't care about memorable characters or Oscar worthy performances. This movie does not even try to bring that up, it knows what its good for, it puts its focus on it and executes its goals pretty good.
The movie drags on way too long, but there are things to like.
Director Peter Berg said:I spent a lot of time in the Navy thinking about who would make sense and who would bring an urban swagger to this character…put a call in, had a great couple of meetings, and she's a great girl, really hard-working, very smart, wants to be good, really strong work ethic, no attitude, no diva nonsense. She was great. There are some references in the movie that loosely connect it to the original Battleship board game. Those who are familiar with the game can pick up on them easily.<br/><br/><ul><li>Part of the plot involves the aliens emitting an electromagnetic pulse, which disrupts radio signals, including radar, communications, and targeting systems. The aliens themselves are unable to detect ships unless they have a direct line of sight. This means both sides are blind to each other's positions—just like the game, where the player is unaware of the enemy's position and can only fire blind.</li></ul><br/><br/><ul><li>The alien artillery "shells" look just like the pegs used in the game to mark hits and misses. In the movie, several of the enemy "pegs" embed themselves into a ship deck or hull, and then all simultaneously explode and sink the target ship. In the board game, an enemy ship is sunk only after several pegs are used.</li></ul><br/><br/><ul><li>Due to their lack of radar, the Navy resorts to receiving signals from the NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) system of buoys. The system is designed to track tsunamis (and other natural events) by detecting water displacement levels, but can detect any massive water displacement, suchthose caused by the alien ships. The NOAA system is composed of a network of buoys spread across the ocean surface to form a grid, which is displayed on the Navy ship's instruments, and looks similar to the grids used by players in the game. Also (as in the game) the Naval personnel call out alien targets using a letter-number code to mark positions on the grid—and spotters on the ship call out "miss" and "hit" after each missile salvo.</li></ul> No, but someone does say, "They're not sinking this battleship!" It's the Naval Working Uniform (NWU). Based on the MARPAT Marine Corps Combat Utility Uniform, with multiple pockets on the shirt and trousers, it uses a multicolor digital print pattern similar to those introduced by other services. However, the NWU is also made in three variants: predominantly blue (with some gray) for the majority of sailors and shipboard use; a woodland digital pattern; and a desert digital pattern for sailors serving in units requiring those types of uniforms, suchSEALs. Woodland and desert variants may be tailored differently than the blue-pattern uniform. The overall blue color reflects the Navy's heritage and connection to seaborne operations. The pixelated pattern is also used to hide wear and stains, something unavoidable with the utilities and working khakis used previously. The colors were also chosen to match the most commonly used paint colors aboard ship, extending the lifetime of the uniform on long deployments where uniforms often come into contact with freshly painted surfaces. This uniform is also worn at Naval Medical Center San Diego and other on-shore facilities. As of 2012 the NWU is authorized for wear outside of military installations. Yes. There's a short scene showing three Scottish kids finding one of the derelict pieces that splintered from the original formation at the beginning of the film. A man with a truck full of tools happens by and uses some of his implements to try to open it, failing, until a blowtorch works. They struggle and finally succeed in opening the pod, and the scene ends with them all running off scared, when an alien inside starts climbing out. "Interstate Love Song" by Stone Temple Pilots.
