#rsrh Went to go see Battle: Los Angeles.

Short version is: I liked it.

Much longer version hidden as a somewhat shorter version: what Bill Whittle said.

Now, I am not saying that anybody who hates this movie is a Godless Commie: shaky-cam bugs some people on a physiological, psychological, and/or cinematographic level. Some of the science is indeed wonky*.  You knew by about halfway through the film where our heroes were ending up.  All of these are legitimate criticisms.  But if you hate the heroes of the film (note: not ‘protagonists’) for who they are, then you probably hate America and I would appreciate it if you moved out like you keep threatening to do every time we elect a Republican President.

My only real complaint was that going to see this one means that it’ll probably be a while before I see Rango.  Which is an acceptable consequence to face.
