A few weeks ago me and a couple of friends went to go see the new movie “Battlefield LA”. This movie was set in modern day and dealt with an alien invasion that was taking place all over the world. However, the movie focuses on one basic unit of marines that were stationed in LA at the time. They are sent on a mission to retrieve civilians that might be trapped in an abandoned police department. Along their mission many things happen and it seems nothing can go right for the marines. They do eventually find one of the aliens command centers and end up destroying it. Their accomplishment is relayed all over the world and soon everyone knows how to win against the aliens.
The movie was truly great and left me with real respect for everyone that serves in our military. Throughout the movie there was one recurring theme of never giving up. No matter what happened to the marines, or how many losses they had they always pulled themselves together and kept marching on. We need to learn to never give up and not accept defeat. The best things in life are going to be hard to obtain. If we just give up and never try hard for these things, then we will never have anything in life that is worth much. We are becoming lazy as a society and have become accustom to just giving up. We need to break this habit and fight for what we love and accomplish what no others have.
I saw this movie with you and it was definitely worth watching. It was amazing to watch just how brave this group of marines were and how all they cared about was getting their job done, not their own safety. Its a great representation of how our nation's soldiers are and how they fight everyday, risking life and limb, to defend the country they love. God bless our fighting men and women.
