Battle Los Angeles Reviews
Detroit News
Tom Long
This film feels so much like a videogame your hands keep reaching for controllers -- shoot the aliens, shoot the aliens, shoot the aliens.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
With his hawklike profile and square jaw, the hyperstalwart Eckhart looks like a comic-book hero and acts like one, too. He's so stalwart he creaks.
HollywoodChicago.com
Brian Tallerico
Battle Los Angeles is so derivative of superior films that you'll spend half the running time merely making a list of movies that you'd rather be watching.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Gosh darn it all if Battle: Los Angeles is hugely entertaining all on its own right thoughts about plagiarism or no.
Slant Magazine
Glenn Heath Jr.
The film constantly blows thick smoke up our a---s and calls it charity.
Film Comment Magazine
Scott Foundas
Case in point: Battle: Los Angeles, an alien-invasion disaster piece so loud, ham-fisted and joyless-so aggressively lousy-that its only real usefulness is to make one better appreciate the deft touch of a Roland Emmerich.
Chicago Reader
Michael Wilmington
Terminally stupid.
New Yorker
Anthony Lane
If the talk had been surgically removed, leaving only the sights and sounds of combat, this could have been a striking, semiabstract display of aggressive energy; as it is, any viewer over twelve will go for the laughs.

Leonard Maltin
One doesn't approach a movie like this expecting Shakespearean drama. Unlike some films with loftier ambitions, Battle Los Angeles pretty much delivers what it promises:
Dallas Morning News
Chris Vognar
Like an angry tenant bent on revenge, the movie industry has depicted the destruction of Los Angeles with staggering consistency if not a wealth of imagination.
Beliefnet
Nell Minow
Destined to be remembered primarily as yet another step toward closing the gap between games and movies, it's a lot of boom-boom and a bunch of "hoo-yah."
Washington Post
Mark Jenkins
H.G. Wells did it better. This movie spends so much yawn-inducing time on variations of the same combat scenario that its final showdown feels rushed.
USA Today
Scott Bowles
Battle takes its fight so seriously that it's hard to get behind the mission.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Eckhart's commitment to the movie's reality, which is as fierce as the sergeant's commitment to his men, takes what otherwise might merely have been outlandish and makes it believable, and frightening.
AskMen.com
Radheyan Simonpillai
Neither as serious as Black Hawk Down nor as lightheartedly fun as Independence Day.
Los Angeles Times
Betsy Sharkey
You can't help but wish there had been a lot more heart in this Marine's story.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
As it lurches from Act II to Act III, "Battle: Loss Angeles" reveals itself to be a lousy movie.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
This silly extraterrestrial-invasion epic somehow manages the feat of making the destruction of La La Land seem tedious.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
As it stands, Battle: Los Angeles is good dumb fun. A little less talking and a little weirder alien and it might have been something more.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
A loud, frenetic, viscerally gripping two-hour tour of duty that mostly plays fair by the rules of the genre and mostly avoids macho posturing.
