    I was really excited about seeing this film but I was really disappointed. I was totally irrated with Tom Cruises little brats of kids especially his son which he should have given a right hook to for being so moody. I didnt like Cruises performance as well he seemed such a grumpy bastard.
    I don't think Steven Spielberg really delivered what could have been. I loved the original I think its a classic, I preferred it because it seemed so more intense. I thought tom Cruise would have a girlfriend like the original I would have preferred that idea much better than the annoying kids.
    Again the effects were great but the film was nothing special. I think because of the wars going on that the moment he couldn't really beef it up as much and made a different kind of film than that concept. I'm really annoyed because that's the war of the worlds movie I was going to see. :(

      I saw this movie at the drive-in with my brother last year. All I could do was crack Scientology jokes. I look at this way. If this was real life, Tom Cruise would be wanting to welcome aliens, not run away from them.

                    Well, technically, War of the Worlds wasn't a remake at all. Its an adaptation (and better one at that) of the book. George Pal's film was nothing like the book, and I thought it was very boring. I actually really enjoyed the new version, being a huge fan of the book. But that's just me.

                      if the aliens came to earth before how could the bacteria kill them because bacteria has existed since time began

                        That isnt really true. Bacteria mutate, much the same as anything else does, so the new strains around now would be far different than the aliens were exposed to however long ago they set up their machinery on earth. This isnt unlike how when Europeans came to the Americas they infected the native inhabitants with whatever they were carrying, though the Europeans had developed an immunity.

                        Visually the movie is amazing. I love the look Spielberg has been giving his movies lately (the process used is called ENR, not that anybody knows or cares what that is). The machines were cool as hell, and even the sounds they made were perfect.

                        However, I hated...HATED...Tom Cruise's character. I dont buy that he would not know that his daughter is allergic to peanuts, for example. But then I get testy with the multitude of poor fathers I see in film and on TV.
                        I speak for all mediocrities. I am their champion. I am their patron saint.
