Escape to the Movies: Battleship
- Thread starter MovieBob
- Start date
...It's a movie based off the Battleship board game? Was anyone expecting anything truly great from it?
I think at certain times people need to lower their expectations. I haven't seen the flick, but if I was going to I'd walk into it not expecting it to be good and hoping to be pleasently surprised a little bit.
Really you can't judge it the same way you'd just a movie like Avengers or Dark Knight. You just can't, it's fucking battleship.

I enjoyed the movie. I was expecting something stupid and downright hard to watch like the transformer movies but I was very pleased and enjoyed the movie.
But I got the sense it knew it was stupid, and enjoyed it on those terms.

I know someone already answered, I just wanted to post this because your question reminded me of this scene:PsychedelicDiamond said:
Haven't they already made an iconic 'Battleship' movie?
Wasn't it called 'The Hunt for Red October'?

Eddie Valiant walking through Toon Town looked more realistic than the effects in this movie. 10 years from now this movie is going to look like a flushing toilet bowl full of toy ships & water paints.
Sofar the only good movie based on a board game is CLUE.
Oh yeah, here's my prediction for the next game to get a movie.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKfY6SzB9D8

even after watching the trailer, it never got me hooked. maybe one day i will rent it on dvd if there nothing else to watch but i can very well live without it.

Hey movie bob. today scifi channel is going to air a new original movie called american warships. has warships. and has aliens. and in the preview someone does say something along the lines of "i'm not letting them sink my battleship" which is very close to "the line." Would this possibly be a case where a scifi original movie is actually good and better than its blockbuster counterpart with the same premise? Just a thought. I doubt it. but hey. if battleship sucks so badly. at least american warships dont have to try as hard to pass them.
Taylor Kitch is best placed as a sidekick. He's pretty enough but he just isn't quite good enough to pull off main roles.
Liam Neeson can indeed do whatever the hell he wants, and appears to have a good time doing it. It's just a shame most of films he does these days are a little bit lame.
And giving characters a few snappy one liners doesn't make them rich.
And MIB3 looks like it will at least be fun.
...that is all.

They did make an iconic "Battleship" movie. It was made in 1960 and was titled 'Sink the Bismark'. You can watch the trailer at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0054310/VoidWanderer said:
