Synopsis: An alien species responds to our message to the stars by landing in the Pacific ocean. A few battleships are around to fight it.
Review: Not as bad as I thought it would be. Very nice special effects and massive destruction of cities and ships in this cross-over between Pearl Harbor and Transformers. It is funny that a 2-hour movie was inspired by the simple game of the same name (Bataille Navale in French). What they kept from it is the shape of the enemy bombs and a 10-minute scene of hit and miss in the dark, trying to guess where the enemies lie on a grid. One should watch the movie without taking it seriously, otherwise you would be chocked by the ridiculousness of some scenes and the caricatural characters.
Rating: 6 /10
