Biggest letdown of the summer

Rating: Null/10 (3 July 2005)

I waited months to see War of the Worlds. Let me say that the first thirty minutes of this movie is great. Great performances all around, and by now everyone knows that the special effects are some of the best ever seen. Then after thirty minutes the picture turned into....GARBAGE! Steven!! What has happened to you? You were at the top of your game. Then during A.I. you fell apart (except for Minority Report). I don't mind plot holes. But some of the holes in WOW are outlandish. I had heard how bad the ending was. But nothing prepared me for the stupidness of it. This is not the work of anyone with intelligence. Don't take my word for it, though. Spend your money, and you'll see for yourself.
