A very well done thriller

Rating: 8/10 (30 June 2005)

I'd have to say that this film is certainly the most powerful alien thriller I have ever seen. Steven Speilburg truly proves that he is one of the greatest directors of our time without so much as a flop on his record. Not only was the movie clever, but ultimately touching. Many say the movie was actually not well done but in fact a total wast of time. I would not listen to these negative critics who have clearly lost their sense of what a good movie actually is. The movie outlines all emotions, actions and morals of society if ever under attack in the way this movie has shown. Not only is "War of The Worlds" very thrilling, it truly does encompass all the fears a person would be going through. I myself felt like I was under attack as I sat on the edge of my seat glued to the theater screen. If you are one who appreciates drama along with suspenseful scenes, you will most definitely enjoy this new approach to an alien genre very much different from E.T.
