Best Sci-fi film yet

Rating: 7/10 (10 August 2005)

HG Wells classic novel has been made a radio broadcast and also made into a film in the 1950s but the best time to remake it would be now, especially as computers help create stunning visual effects. The original film made in the 1950s starred Gene Barry and the film won an Oscar for best special effects. The Steven Spielberg remake deserves an Oscar for the same reason.
War of the Worlds follows ray Ferrier with his son and daughter fighting to survive devastating alien attacks. The only main thing that was changed in this film compared to the original film was the time in which it was set. It is set in present day America, as director Steven Spielberg wanted to give the disaster a realistic view and how a family would fight to survive it. Overall the film is very good, it has a great story, and if you are a fan of Steven Spielberg you must see this film, and when it is given a DVD release, it is worth a purchase.
