Wow.. Just wow!

Rating: 10/10 (3 July 2005)

Oh my freaking lord, wow!
This is one of the best film i have seen in the theatre since Sin City, now there are some odd quirks in this movie, but they are not too noticeable. I did state this has spoilers, but hey, if you read the book, or saw the first film, there are no spoilers. The martians were very well done indeed, the tripods were cool, except for their feet, a mecha with suction cup toes??? come on.. oh well, that is one of my biggest beefs but again, it is very small. Tom Cruise, tho i do not agree with his religious choices, and outlook on medicines, I really enjoy his performance, as i did in " The Last Samurai ", the kids were annoying, but the acting was great on the most part. Robbins' Oglivie was a great part. Effects were great, you got a great scope of the walkers with the quick and smoky visuals, and their bellows, gave me chills and nightmares.. woot! Great summer frights. Even with the quirks I am giving it a 10 out of 10.
