In the year 3000, man is no match for a manipulative race of aliens on a quest for global domination. Led by the seductive and powerful Terl (Travolta), the Psychlos have taken all natural resources for themselves and left mankind behind to rot. When humanity has given up the fight it's up to Tyler (Pepper), a rebel hero, to lead a revolt and save the planet from the villainous leader of the giant alien species.

"And after about 20 minutes of this amateurish picture, extinction doesn't seem like such a bad idea." | ||||
"The words 'so bad it's good' strain to make themselves heard through the film's coarse bluster and grimy din." | ||||
"Battlefield Earth saves its scariest moment for the end: a virtual guarantee that there will be a sequel." | ||||
"You don't watch it -- you survive it." | ||||
"The script, based on a novel by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, is deeply dumb, depressingly derivative (ripping off 'Planet of the Apes' the most) and just plain nonsense." | ||||
"Goes from being tediously terrible to downright gigglesome." | ||||
"A sluggish, soporific dud, the dreariest big-budget science-fiction adventure since 'Dune.'" | ||||
"Compounded by a dated visual style, patched-together special effects and ludicrous dialogue, 'Battlefield Earth' is a wholly miserable experience." | ||||
"Simply put, 'Battlefield Earth' is the worst film I've seen in over 10 years, and believe me, that's saying a lot." | ||||
"One of the darkest, ugliest, most uninvolving and incomprehensible major-studio fantasies I've ever "seen. | ||||
"It may be a bit early to make such judgments, but 'Battlefield Earth' may well turn out to be the worst movie of this century" |
