Never saw the movie, yet. Sounds like it may be the go to audio for the season though, could be a fun movie to have around
"..or its DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround track for that matter. Battleship's shock and awe continues with the full might and fury of a ground-shaking, wall-pounding, neighbor-waking lossless mix that doesn't let up for a second. Dialogue somehow maintains its composure, in part due to smart prioritization, in part due to crystal clear clarity, and in part due to knowing when to shut up and let hellfire reign down on the enemy forces. LFE output is angry and aggressive, with devastating explosions, hull-breaching surges of water, and steel-rending eruptions. When an alien ship splashes down, it splashes down. When a destroyer unloads, it unloads. When a vessel is torn in two, it comes apart with startling ferocity. The rear speakers are, quite possibly, even more aggressive. Fighter jets and alien ships rocket across the soundfield, missiles and alien armaments hurtle past, waves rise and fall all around, buildings crumble, cities panic, winds blow... it's a 360 degree experience as immerssive as it is involving. It only helps that pans are silky smooth, directionality is blessed with deadly aim, and dynamics are nothing short of invigorating. In short, Battleship's AV presentation is one of the best of the year thus far."
