70% Spielberg

Rating: 7/10 (19 December 2005)

It seems like SPielberg's being waiting till the advances in digital technology have let him make "War the worlds" in the way he needed to do it. So, there's no doubt: the movie is technically perfect, amazing. But when it's about S.S. we all know what we're gonna have, and there are no surprises (except for the expected ones). So in this massive extraterrestrial invasion we got the best Spielberg (the one that's expert on terrify people, the master in suspense), and the worst side of the Jewish director: the demagogue, the one with a dubious morality, the happy endings...
As for the actors, Dakota Fanning keeps on amazing me; she's one of the best child-actors ever. And Tom Curise... well, let's say he's passed this test.
*My rate 6.5/10
