I almost ran away myself

Rating: 1/10 (15 July 2005)

Of course I had to see this new Spielberg-Cruise movie, because usually I like Cruise movies, and Spielberg has made some great movies (in the beginning of his career).
The start of the movie was OK, but soon the irritation started. Lots of scenes were too overly created to have an emotional effect on the viewer or were simplistic or didn't fit with 'reality' or were just grossly in error.
The little girl being scared so awkward situations can be created, the blood and organs as nutrition for a new alien world (why would the aliens want such a world / and why would they first zap away humans and in the second half of the movie suddenly collect bodies and use their blood, what a waste ?), the aliens suddenly dying of Earth's micro-organisms (as if those aliens weren't smart enough to test this before they took on the plan to invade our earth) and it goes on and on and on.
Spielberg, you really lost it ...
