A great invasion flick

Rating: 8/10 (6 July 2005)

I, like everyone else posting here, am not a professional movie critic. I just know what I like, and I liked this movie! War of the worlds is an exciting, interesting movie. I must say that I am surprised by the bad reactions of some people to this movie. I think this is due to people just being afraid of the subject matter, so they never let their imaginations run wild. They ridicule what terrifies them as a defense mechanism. It's easy to sit back and say, "that does'nt make sense." If aliens ever do attack the earth, I guarantee that it wont make sense to a lot of people. Having never witnessed an alien invasion,who on this planet is qualified to say what one would be like? I have seen every Steven Spielberg movie from Jaws to this one, and War of the worlds was worth every penny. A great summer movie.
