Just about everything Liam Neeson is involved in turns out to be total crap.  He's a bigger movie Ho then Sean Connery turned out to be...

I'll wait until it's free on cable TV, and I don't have anything better to do.

Schindlers List = Liam Neeson = Absolutely Amazing.

As for the movie. Yes, its stupid. But Sh!!!t goes boom. Nuff said.

Independence Day is one of my favorite movies, its simply the best.

I'll give you that one.  I thought Rob Roy was ok as well.  But a large percentage of his more recent movies are just garbage.

You should watch the Syfy Channel TV movie American Warship. It's basically a dumbed down, low budget version of the same movie. But I think parts of it were shot on the Iowa so there is that. I liked how they got from Pearl to Korea answering a distress call in just a few hours. Then there's the part where a main turret explodes and a 4 sqft chunk of armor flys thru the air and hits a 120lb woman, pinning her down on deck so the Captain rushes over, lifts it off her and she walks away without a scratch. Oh yeah, the Captain ignores the orders of the Vice Admiral that was on board and neither of them knew what Sound Powered Phones were.

I smell Emmy.

Don't even do it, no matter if it's free, even picking belly button lint is more entertaining than this movie.

You need to see the Syfy pic just so you can appreciate how bad it is.

I watched Redtails other day  :cry

Is Battleship the same standard as Redtails?

I watched The French Connection other day it was very good, after all these years as well :old:
