Could have been so much better!!!

Rating: 3/10 (3 July 2005)

So very disappointing! With all of Tom Cruise's crazy antics these past few weeks I put all of my faith in Steven Spielberg. What was the point? Where was the substance? This movie was nothing but "run, scream, hide" over and over again. Plus, I love how those in Boston they were trying to reach were perfectly fine while the city lay in ruins. Nothing happened to them. I mean come on...their clothes looked like they just came from the dry cleaners while everyone else looked like hell. Such a disappointment. Oh, and why did the heads of the aliens look exactly the aliens from Independence Day?
This movie is almost as bad as A.I. for Mr. Spielberg. When the lights came up I heard a few applause but many disapproving comments. No doubt this movie will make a lot of money but I hope to see better in the future from Mr. Spielberg.
