Is “Battle: Los Angeles,” which was directed, rather enterprisingly, by Jonathan Liebesman, a metaphor for the U.S. With his hawklike profile and square jaw, the hyperstalwart Eckhart looks like a comic-book hero and acts like one, too.

It’s difficult to determine if these aliens, once they die, are really dead. Sure, it’s tacky, and the hovering alien space drones look like hairy chandeliers, but the Marines come out on top – sort of. Maybe the Marines should consider using “ Battle: Los Angeles,” about which I cogitate, as a recruiting tool. These UFOs turn out to be alien invaders. Los Angeles! The home of Hollywood and all things shallow. Mysterious objects – meteors? – are streaking toward Earth, and not just any old place on Earth.
