A group of sailors find themselves fighting for the survival of the planet. Transformers meets Battle Los Angeles (2011) in this FX driven action feature. Visually this is a top shelf offering, fast paced with lots of action and more than a little humor. On the flip side its lacks the 'meatiness' of either Transformers or Battle Los Angeles in both scope and story. But if you went to this movie for story depth and character development you are either high, wound up in the wrong theater, or both. However there is no shortage of 'BOO-YA!' moments, with the geezers vs ET finale being especially satisfying. Very cool twist on weaponizing the Langoliers. Take it for what it is- 130 minutes of ass kicking FX. I will say that having no expectations going into this definitely worked in my favor.
