War of the Worlds

Meh, Okay movie. Although I'm spoiled after seeing Batman-which is probably the best movie of the summer. If it wasn't for the special effects, the movie wouldn't be that great. I think I'll get the audiobook off iTunes (yes, I'm too lazy to go to the stupid bookstore and get the book). I'm curious to see how much It's changed.

Ending of this movie SUCKS in my opinion.

You're weird (in my opinion) I loved that movie. It's my favorite now. War of the Worlds totally blows Batman out of the water.
It's green. It's blue. It's all over you! Enjoy your ride on Déjà Vu

War of the worlds was just too corny...ending just flat out sucked. There was WAY too much going on to fit into a movie...there were too many loose threads. I don't normally leave a movie thinking that.

Hah.

Anyways, this movie should've either ended with a sequel or been ATLEAST an hour longer. How did they get there? Why? Can we atleast talk to these guys? They had no motive, worst ending ever.

But a great start.

I knew the ending from the start and I still thought the movie was terrible. VERY uneventful. Who wants to watch them chill in the basement for, what I think, was a half-hour of the movie? Who was that girl that Tom Cruise met/knew? How (?!) did the boy survive?
Ok enough questions but my friend and I counted the amount of times Tom Cruise was two feet away from killed...23 times. Gah.

I also love that either Bosten hasn't been touched yet. (While the giant 3 legged creatures are roaming around farm houses) Or how the mother is just chillin in her house not dead yet.

The boy survived?!?

Tom Cruise is a lunatic. Let's boycott the movie to get his crazed mind out of Hollywood.

^Exactly. I noticed too how his ex wives grandma's house was in the most unscathed neighborhood of Boston. They could have shot that today. Wow...so many continuity errors.

I thought it was a great movie, though the ending was a little rushed.

I thought it was an awesome movie. I actually saw twice. Dakota Fanning is a really good actress. I didn't get some parts.

How did the first tripod machine in Boston die?

After Ray gets out of the basement how come outside is all red and what are those red vines?


I sound a little stupid but I just don't get those parts and I saw it twice.
