Battle: Los Angeles (2011)
American version of an absurd Bollywood movie
Just got back from the cinema. This is an American version of an absurd Bollywood movie with the difference that Bollywood movies are quite funny and this one is just silly, full of all the things that we have already seen in other movies thousands of times and very predictable.
NASA spots meteorites and when they enter the atmosphere NASA realises that these are not meteorites! That useless NASA! Aliens come to Earth for the fuel (Earth's water!!!) so they attack 26 cities on the world. We don't even get to know how they look like exactly as all scenes with aliens are shaky and short. There something running/flying here and there.
At the beginning 3 marines use 3 rifles and grenade to put down an alien. As the movie progresses it becomes easier so at the end a shot from a pistol is enough.
Other things like in the middle of the fight marine gets shot and the other approaches him. Suddenly all action stops, aliens pause so marines can have touchy chat.
Marines don't behave like marines but like a bunch of idiots. There is just so many annoying things!
I would give it 0 votes if it was possible.
In conclusion: Avoid that crap!
Torrente 4: Lethal Crisis (2011)
Brilliant
This is the fourth movie about Spanish private detective Torrente. The main character José Luís Torrente played by Santiago Segura is an absolute anti-hero. He always has a bad luck and gets in to really difficult situations. On top of that he always looks dirty and does disgusting things and has no manners at all. The whole movie is full of dirty jokes, naked breasts, farts and sneezing. Most of the movie cast are Spanish comedians, actors,famous people and even football players or Real Madrid.
If you like this type of humour and you know a bit Spanish culture, you have to see it. I laughed out loud in a lot of moments but there were some jokes related to Spanish media or celebrities that I had to ask my friends for explanation.
In my opinion Torrente 4 and Torrente 2 are the best of all Torrente movies.
