Not what i expected

Rating: 2/10 (4 July 2005)

Well i just came from watching war of the world, seeing that i love cruise and have enjoyed most of his past movies,I thought "cruise and Spielberg.. wow, it must be a must see movie". Horrible........ this is the only word i can describe it. No story- except that of an Invasion (and we ve had too much of that). In the first 15 min, you are taken back by the graphics of the aliens , and the sound effects, which is a little horrifying for my taste, then you get over all that and you try to desperately find a story,, or a tag line which the story is heading towards,,, Nothing, Zip.. People running around, getting evaporated and sucked dry out of blood. Even the ending no one did any thing, the things just broke down on their own. The whole movie is based on scaring the audience with the sound effects, which is some times miss used.
This is not what i expected,,,,,,,
