Nothing new here, including some unrealistic decisions made by the protagonists that the audience was quick to laugh at. Nonetheless, fun movie if you allow yourself to be scared.
The portion of this movie that relates to the game of Battleship is a comical stretch, but still impressive they were able to work it in. Otherwise this is total cheese crowd pleaser in the same vein as Independence Day. Dope special effects but nothing mind-shattering. (Only Earth-shattering...)
