Great

Rating: 10/10 (29 June 2005)

For anyone who has read the book..and watched the original, this movie is amazing. The visual effects are great, the story is tastefully told, the ending isn't cheesy (and yes obviously there was a set ending, but it could have been done in a crappy way..which it wasn't) and the lead characters are great! WotW has no long conversation scenes and yet the plot flows perfectly. And Dakota Fanning is as wonderful in this movie as shes been in everything shes been in so far, in my opinion shes up there with the best of the best, and shes only 11. I would def. urge people to go see it, I live in Queens, where people are embarrassed to say they like something..yet they actually clapped when Tom Cruise blew up one of the tripods, and at the end. Queens people clapping? I see a lot of movies, and I haven't seen that in a long, long time.
