i expect more from Spielberg, this movie is let dowm but not completely bad and it also had good staff.

The mixing of world destruction and personal familial problems were bound to make a bad recipe. Spielberg should have stay more in tune to the `53 version and stay focused on the main story. Still, the special effects are top notch. When the action start, you can only be feel as if you were there but unfortunatly those are cooled down melo-dramatical mumbo jumbo.

Watch it in big theatres. It`s like being there. It`s 9-11/saving private ryan/schindler`s list/titanic disaster all combined into one horrific experience. Intense. Disturbing. I don`t want to be alive when this event actually happens.

And movie execs are wondering why there is a decline in viewership. Continue spewing garbage like this sorry excuse for a movie, they`ll prlly have to mortgage the hollywood sign to make another one. It should be a crime to charge $9.50 to peddle garbage like this!

I don`t know why the movie studios think they can put out a piece of garbage just because Tom Cruise is in it. Great effects, so-so actor, and a stupid plot with a bad ending that didn`t explain anything.

The special effect`s were very good, but the use of the camera made the movie the second worst movie I have seen this year,the 1968 ( I think it was 68 might have been 67) remake of the war of the worlds was a far better movie than what I had watched on the 30 of June 2005. I was so board and feed up with getting sick with the camea work that I walked out twice in the movie, the first time to go and get a refill on my soda, the second time to go get some candy. If you have never read or watched and older movie of "War Of the Worlds" you would more than likely enjoy this movie, but if you have seen it before or listen to the real tape`s

This movie ie spectacular. Very entertaining and a true sci-fi movie. People rating these kind of movies bad, stop acting like you`re an academy award critic, stop looking for flaws, open your mind and just enjoy. Spielberg always sets the bar when it comes to excellence. War of the Worlds is a must-see.

A good movie for the 4 of July for the Americans, poor story , dead ending...did they run out of ideas in the second half ? Thats about all that needs to be said about this movie. Speilberg can`t win them all.
