Battleship

How does an actor follow-up a major flop like John Cater? Star in a “B Grade” unoriginal, poorly scripted and directed movie called Battleship.
Taylor Kitsch star of John Carter will probably have a hit eventually (remember how many bombs Tom Hanks was in before he hit pay dirt) but this ain’t it. This movie is about a fleet of ships that is forced to do battle with an armada of unknown origins in order to discover and thwart their destructive goals.
That being said add Rhianna to the mix and you realize 15 minutes into the movie that you wasted your money.
Rhianna needs to stick to what she does best and stay off the screen. Liam Neeson phoned in his part from the set of Taken 2. In other words he is barely in the movie.
There is a corny scene where they incorporate the actual game Battleship (which this movie is allegedly based on) into the movie. Finally the special effects are not on par with effects you see in the Avengers movie so if you saw the Avengers prior to this you will be disappointed in what you see on screen.

Verdict:
There really is NOTHING good that I can say about this movie. Director Peter Berg should go back to acting, back in the day he was really good in the movie The Last Seduction. He should also leave doing movie interviews (his promotion for this movie was a fiasco) and directing to the pros.
