Unrelenting Action

Rating: 10/10 (2 July 2005)

War of the Worlds is the vision of Spielberg of what happens when earth is attacked by more superior beings. He takes a narrow focus on a dysfunctional family's reaction after they were attacked. The movie goes after that at a breakneck speed with extermination all around. The scene where Tom looks out of window and see entire panorama red was chilling.The special effects were very good. Dialogues was minimal and thankfully without any punch lines. Acting of Tom and Dakota was excellent. Climax was a let down, but the way the movie was moving forward there were few options for Spielberg.
Spielberg proves he is top of the world with this chilling saga
