I've seen some crap movies, but this one made my head hurt and I feel some what stupider for having watched the half hour of it I managed to sit through before ejecting the disc cutting it up with a pair of scissors and returning it to the video shop....

Is this the one where the soldiers are in a carpark fighting this robot thing and their sergeant gets shot? They tossed a grenade at it and the robot tosses it back at them.

If it is I watched about 30 minutes of it on pay TV about a month ago at my parents place. I couldn't believe how bad it was. I turned it off when a woman armed with a sword destroyed an alien spaceship by leaping down about 20 meters from a building onto it and splitting it open then jumping off as it blew up. I watched it for so long because I thought it was that other movie where aliens invade Los Angeles. It took me a while to reconcile this shocker to what was meant to be a big budget blockbuster.

One of the stupidest movies ever. Absolutely crappy special effects. At least I didn't waste any money on it.

Saw it yesterday, fell asleep about 30 mins into it and can't blame fatigue.

Not only did I lose brain cells watching this stupid drivel...

But know it looks like it might cost me thirty bucks

Just got a call from the video shop asking if I knew that the disc I just returned was cut into four pieces...

Apparently destroying the disc to save others from having to watch it is not an act of community service....

Well i watched horrible bosses and that makes battle l.a look like a feature film.

I feel I may need counselling and some strong medication to help myself recover from this movie. Seriously this film has me thinking I don't want to live anymore I'm basically on par with a chronically depressed lemming.

My advice is if you want to have a productive and entertaining evening might I suggest running through london underground with a backpack full of clocks towards a train.

^^^^I had a chuckle at Horrible Bosses.Not an awsome movie by any standards,but a bit of a laugh.
But I tend to like movies you dont have to think hard about cause it hurts if I do
Simple movie for a simpleton.

My head hurt for a month after watching Inception.

Why don't you watch "Into the Wild" to recover that brain cell

Wait you watched "Battle of los angeles" you poor bastard, there's no unwatching those kinds of movies... I bet you thought you were watching "Battle: Los Angeles".

theDoctor,

you could have saved yourself some pain, time and $30 if you had read this thread:

www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/General-Discussion/Chat/Worst-movies-ever/

After this thread and reading about the movie on IMDB I'm kind of interested in watching this movie again, just to see if its as bad as I remember plus whether I could watch it from start to finish.
