Really really stupid movie. I had to watch on FF to get through it. Tom Cruise did his usual, with incredibly bad acting as well.

A slow paced survival thriller. This was one apocalyptic film where I was actually concerned for our main character's survival. The film is somewhat anti climatic with conclusion that feels forced. If you can forgive the uncanny valley…

A 110 minute sci-fi type movie. It was about a guy with 2 children. They are on their way to Boston. The alien monsters in the sky try to conquer the earth with long tentacles to grab or vaporize people. The movie shows numerous alien…

Tom Cruise, just a movie star, boring! The first movie was campy but worked, this version blah!

The War of the Worlds is a fascinating story and a marvelous book. In Steven Spielberg's retelling, following Morgan Freeman's delivery of the introduction by H. G. Wells, the story shifts to the docks in New Jersey, where Tom Cruise plays…

Directed by Steven Spielberg in 2005 loosely based on the similarly-titled novel by H. G. Wells, this American SF drama depicts the struggle of a dock worker who looks after his children during the invasion of the aliens. Although visual…

***** SPOILER ALERT ***** Tom Cruise's character Ray calmly blindfolds his daughter, tells her to sing a lullaby to herself, has her cover her ears, then he goes into another room where a man has his back to Ray. Ray closes the door…

Big budget, lightweight entertainment. It’s effective in spots, but narrow escapes get tedious after many repetitions. The depiction of extraterrestrials as evil and slimy was offensive: When they destroy the world it’s a terrible thing…

Well adapted. People forget the end was written that way. Updated to current times. Girl is great screamer... Also, the guy is point of view, so action is just to see more places.

This particular adaptation of the HG Wells classic uses the martian invasion as a really good metaphor for the things encroaching upon modern Western society; Communist/Leftist incursion that has been going on in Western universities and…

I agree with a lot of the more negative comments already made. At least the movie retains major elements of the original story rather than do the typical Hollywood thing and take a title and then make a completely unrecognizable movie…

An adaptation of H. G. Wells's [The War of the Worlds] which is less credible in modern times, but held up well by special effects.

In a film like this, the aliens/special effects run the show. Sorry Tom Cruise and Dakota Fanning (when she was annoying lol) it's just the truth. I don't even know why they bothered to act/overact.

Do you think that aliens taking over The Earth would make any more of a mess of this planet than we humans already have?_____ In spite of this remake's story having a decidedly "dysfunctional family" angle to it (I absolutely despised the…

Dreadful script, barely functional acting (it'd be a stretch to call what Tom Cruise does in this movie as "acting"), and worse: the special effects are awful. I laughed my way through much of the film. Avoid at all costs even though…

If you can stand the whining of Dakota Fanning's character, this was not a bad movie.
