Does Battlefield Earth Really Deserve That Rating? | Bad Movie Review

Описание: BATTLEFIELD EARTH MOVIE REVIEW | In this long-awaited (and much-dreaded) episode, the Bad Movies Rule! crew finally tackles the infamous sci-fi disaster Battlefield Earth — the John Travolta passion project based on L. Ron Hubbard’s novel that somehow managed to waste a massive budget while delivering one of the most notorious flops in cinema history.
James, Mel, Joe, and Curt suffer through Dutch angles, breathe-right strips, meat hoses, slop trough fights, Harrier jets piloted by cavemen, and Travolta’s wild alien makeup as they break down the movie scene-by-scene. Expect rants about the budget black hole, plot holes big enough to fly a Psychlo ship through, and plenty of debate over who gave the most unhinged performance.
They hand out the Will Patton Intensity Award, the Trash Can of Dirty Water for worst acting, the Bixby Snyder One Scene Wonder, and the Steve James Supporting Performance trophy.
If you’ve ever wondered how a movie with this much money and talent could be this bad, strap on your breather mask and join the suffering. You’ll never look at rat burgers (or elongated sandwiches) the same way again.
Bad Movies Rule! — The podcast that’s somehow worse than the movies.
