In our never-ending quest to keep you informed and up-to-date on movie and home entertainment happenings, Inside Redbox regularly takes a look at major films coming out in the near(ish) future that are already generating buzz and anticipation. This time around, we’re spotlighting the board game-turned-movie Battleship.
Here’s the trailer:
With apologies to the semi-classic Clue, movies based on board games generally don’t make for great entertainment. The makers of Battleship have taken the stodgy game and added Transformer-like aliens and sound effects (and a small role for Rihanna) to spice things up. The question is, will moviegoers flock to this sci-fi/action film?
Battleship sails into theaters this May—will you be there?
Probably not.
Dud.
Are you kiddin’ me? Absolutely! I’ll be camped out waitin’ for the doors to open.
I’ll see this one in the theater, CG effects look better on the BIG screen.
