Movie review - War of the Worlds

War of the Worlds

Director: Steven Spielberg

Writers: Josh Friedman, David Koepp and H.G. Wells

Actors: Tom Cruise, Dakota Fanning, Justin Chatwin and Tim Robbins

My guess: 6,6? - 2008? (6,5 - 2005)

My Points: 7,1 - 3½/5

Well, a pretty nice movie - but not the best...

Baseball between the father; Tom "Ray Ferrier" Cruise and the son; Justin "Robbie" Chatwin was nice.

Dakota "Rachel Ferrier" Fanning as the daughter was also nice, although I - in the days - hated her! But, she little 'over' acted - and not so little...

The Aliens 'in the asfalt' were pretty nice and cool. When they 'shooted' people, it was nice when they turned in to dust clouds.

When Ray 'dealed' the breads like playing Poker, and kids where just yawning - was pretty damn funny!

The fallen plane wreck was nice, looked kinda real. Hijacking the 'solar' car was nice.

Robbie going in to the 'army war' was cool.

Nice to see Tim Robbins, 'his' movie The Shawshank Redemption (1994) is still number one (maybe not in my opinion, but in IMDb it indeed is still number one). But he's scene ('the cellar') was kinda boring, and stupid! Aliens searching every cellar, dont think so... Or maybe they just searched in accidentally that one (where the good guys were...)?!

The ending, well... kinda shitty and 'blaaaah' - I didn't like (expecially for the first time, but not even now...)!
