Good, but not great.

Rating: Null/10 (6 August 2011)

If your going to watch this movie for a storyline, then forget it.
If you like action and some romance than definitely watch this. It just didn't live up to my expectations. The whole "war of the worlds" theme combined with "ET", just didn't do the actors in this movie any justice to their abilities. Its a very predictable movie and one of bad taste.
The action scenes are very good, but not anything special. I also felt the touching moments went over the top also and maybe creating a horror aspect to this movie might have saved it. Soundtrack was very good and a reflection of the period. This movie will definitely be overshadowed by Captain America and Rise of the Planet of the Apes.
