Movie Haiku:By-the-numbers PrickFlick is a guilty pleasure for Rich & a chore for Jan. Aliens are attacking coastal cities all around the world. Marines in LA rescue stranded civilians & then fight back. Lots of cliched dialogue from a multiracial team supporting "Sarge" (Eckhart) in his surge. But even Jan was touched by their macho courage in the face of such overwhelming odds.
