Review of Battleship (2012) by Thomas M — 02 Jan 2018

Big bonus point for the pink panther tune, forcing that rwndomly in there . You had me at da dum da dum ...da dum dad dum dadoodledee dum.

- a sign of the lack of seriousness with which this movie rightfully takes itself .. Wasn't expecting much from this so it overachieved for me - the people are 2d all the way but that's the way with these movies, emotions and event impact exist in expressed words but in no other more real and tangible form, all very plastic .. But you get the feeling the film maker knew this and just ran with it creating decent speed and affable characters with which to side which is all the audience is required to do other than check their thoughts at the door. Limitations accepted much better than expected, than other recent movies of its type and arguably any film based on an old board game has right to be.
