Battlefield Earth

2000 · 117 min

A baffling, over-the-top sci-fi romp that is more laughable than thrilling, with bizarre performances and cheap visuals.

Tagline: Take back the planet.
Overview: In the year 3000, man is no match for the Psychlos, a greedy, manipulative race of aliens on a quest for ultimate profit. Led by the powerful Terl, the Psychlos are stripping Earth clean of its natural resources, using the broken remnants of humanity as slaves. What is left of the human race has descended into a near primitive state. After being captured, it is up to Tyler to save mankind.
How it feels: Campy, absurd, dark and earnest. Brisk and fine in the background.
About: Rebellion, survival, power, freedom
Content: Strong violence. Mild gore and language. No sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
