Battlefield Earth (2000)
Better 20 years later

When I first watched this movie in the cinema and the year 2000, I left thinking it was absolute trash. Focusing on all the holes in the technology, the accents, and the rushed initial storyline. Watching it again 20 years later, with lower expectations, I actually found it highly enjoyable. I liked the aesthetic, and the old school special effects. I actually found John Travolta's performance to be surprisingly refreshing, after putting aside my initial criticism of these sky Demons having American accents. If you are a sci-fi fan, you've got some time and you've watched everything else on Netflix. It's worth another go. I have a new appreciation for the movie.
