A hostile army attacks Los Angeles and everything turns upside down. In the suddenness of the attack, soldiers come to the rescue, pitting their guns and ships against an enemy with superior firepower and technology. L.A., the City of Angels, is laid waste. What would our band of hardy Marines do in the wake of the battle in order to win the war?

War is never a pretty thing and if it’s the subject of a movie, it’s not going to make you jump for joy, because it’s likely a lot of people will be getting killed and a lot of things will be destroyed in the story. War films have always taken inspiration from actual events, historical or otherwise. There’s Pearl Harbor, for example, which depicted the Japanese invasion of Hawaii from the point of view of people caught up in the war. Such surprise attacks are always heartbreaking because people are caught unprepared and end up with lives changed in an instant.

Battle: Los Angeles is a war movie that focuses on a futuristic battle in Los Angeles between soldiers and aliens. Unlike traditional war movies, this one takes on the “what if” approach—in this case it’s: What if hostile aliens invaded Los Angeles more or less like what the Japanese Imperial Army did in World War 2? What would it be like? What if we made the invading army aliens from outer space?
