W.O.T.W. = Wow

Rating: 8/10 (29 June 2005)

Usually, when i go to see a movie, no matter how good it is, I snicker at a few parts and make a few snide remarks to my girlfriend about the acting or plot. Both of us are huge critics and totally nitpicky about every detail. Well, this was different. I'd say for about 75% of the movie we sat there with our mouths gaped wide and clutching each other's arms the entire time.
Spielberg's Effects were breathtaking to say the least. There were very few points where I didn't feel like this is what it would look like if earth were thrown an extreme level of tumult due to an outside assault.
Those of you into post apocalyptic settings or those based on the eve of destruction will be absolutely enraptured with how realistically this is displayed. Epic catastrophe plays out almost nonstop through this movie. Your white knuckling of the arm rest will be constant. Prepare for a treat.
