Definitely not that bad.

I've seen far worse. Hell, I'd go even as far to say that this movie is mildly entertaining. I've seen it a few times.
I agree. Everything I had ever read about the movie makes you think this movie is one of the worst Sci-Fi movies ever made, and not worth watching after the first 5 minutes. I was entertained by it, and never during the movie did I feel it wasn't worth watching or became just another forumula movie. I have seen many movies that are far far far worse. -

I'm with you AnimeMog.
I've seen far far worse movies (BTK Killer springs to mind), and Battlefield Earth is the type of movie that if it happens to be on TV and nothing else is on, it's a good time filler. Sure it's got flaws, some large flaws, but it's still entertaining.
Oh and I love the thing they do with the language to use English but not. That was kind of smart. -

I agree. I just saw the original Total Recall & that was far cheesier than this. Schwarzenneger with his heavy teutonic accent trying to emulate Clint Eastwood's expressions & quips, the heavy-handed "action" scenes, the awful acting, cheapo sets & effects - how did they rate such a high rating???

Like some said, it should be at about rating 5-6, plotholes, bad acting included but the ratings further go down because
- It apparently didn't live up to the high hype created for the movie back when it was released.
- The book it was based on had too much of it's material crammed into just the 2 hour movie (let's face it, this is no Harry Potter nor was there a Emma Watson).
- Scientology..
Final verdict, 2.4 (rating of a porn movie).I would have given it a 6 (definitely no less) but instead gave it a 8.
wat are you lookin' at
