FAKE CGI + No Empathy = DUD

Rating: 1/10 (29 June 2005)

The plot had no cohesion making it difficult for many in the audience to get caught up in the film. That's a big surprise because if you don't empathize with the lead character, what's the point of a disaster film? I had hoped that this would be better. I found myself trying hard to like the film but failing miserably. Despite the number of effects, they were very ho-hum as well. Sad to say that War of the Worlds was a huge misfire. I was SO looking forward to this film and was just severely disappointed by this unsatisfying and incredibly shallow movie. Also, this movie just wouldn't end and I wanted it to so badlyalways the sign of a good movie right? I'd have to say that you'll want to skip this one.
