Skyline

Overview:  Aliens are everywhere... again?  Crap, I already want to shoot myself in the foot for talking about his movie.  I’ll suck it up just give me a second…  *Toilet Flushes*, alright I’m back.  Jarrod‘s trip to LA with his lady and the gu from “Scrubs” starts out like the common “Jersey Shore” episode, but quickly ends when aliens want to destroy the city… Are we sure they’re the bad guys?

The Good:  Like “Battle: LA” there is some amazing special effects in this film regarding the aliens, and on the big screen I’m sure it was impressive to look at.  I was happy to see the Aliens kick some LA butt; because it’s about time someone grabbed that city by the crohns and slapped it across the face. 

The Bad:  I don’t really have anything bad to say about this movie… YEAH RIGHT! Like fun I don’t! I didn’t even know movies could get this bad, about halfway through I felt like gnawing on the wall, and I’m no doctor but I’m pretty sure that’s not healthy.  At least I had fun with “Battle: LA”, with “Skyline” I was just pure bored because there was hardly any movement.  About 3/4s of the movie, the main characters were being losers in their penthouse, and after a while my world was beginning to feel a little claustrophobic.  I’m really starting to get annoyed with the whole “lets-not-explain-why-the-aliens-are-there” storylines, and this one is the worst of them all.  As far as I’m concerned, the aliens are just like those yapping dogs that like to chase cars down the street, and instead of running the dogs over (this is my dream) the dogs tackle the cars and tear them a new one.  I don’t know what to say about the acting, other than it sucked. 

The Ugly:  I want everyone to know that some movie-trailers have a tendency to lie.  Everyone who saw this told me it was horrific, and yet I still wasted a dollar on Redbox because, like an idiot, I thought the trailer looked cool.  I can’t even recommend this as a movie to laugh at, because it isn’t funny, if anything it’s so boring that it makes you want to cry, like I did at the ending of the “Titanic” (don’t judge me).
