The Award for Best Supporting Actor goes to....Tim Robbins!

Rating: 8/10 (22 November 2005)

I got to tell you, I loved "War Of The Worlds". I thought it was a great movie, with lot's of suspense, and great acting. Tom Cruise was excellent, Dakota Fanning was unbelievable, but Tim Robbins has Academy Award winner all over his forehead. The movie was really well written, I have seen the old version of "War Of The Worlds" and I thought it was really good, but this version was way better, thanks to the awesome cast, great story and phenomenal direction by Spielberg. I've always loved "E.T." and "Close Encounters" but this is by far Spielberg's best alien-flick ever. I'm giving it an 8 of out 10 because, it would've gotten a 10, but.... Dakota's screaming, although sounds chilling, kind of get's annoying after awhile. So, i'm gonna knock it down a few points. The reason why I said Tim Robbins has Academy Award winner written all over his forehead, is because even though he's in 1 scene, and the scene is at the end, it's the best Tim Robbins role ever. Tim plays a drunk who knows how to stop the aliens, does his plan work, find out by watching, "War Of The Worlds" based on the best-selling book by award winning author, H.G. Wells.
