e.t. go home !!!

Rating: 4/10 (29 June 2005)

No way I would've thought one day, Independence Day and Armageddon will be huge classics (campy and so bad they're good) compared with this piece of tripod (tripe ) we got. The Cruise and Der Berg just got the cash (and a lot of it)and ruined the H.G. Wells novel. When Spielberg falls he really goes the whole 9 yards. Blam ! Sounds totally broken. If they really wanted to remake it they should've done it period and in England. As it is now it looks like Bush propaganda for the Land of the Brave and the Free and i am quite sure the box office of this will be significantly lower in other territories except the mighty USA. Also Steven, you had to redo Titanic this time ? Godzilla wasn't enough in Jurassic 2 ? And the film in itself it's a way too much Jurassic Park, Tripod Park, I'd say. Plus rips off Signs (and Cruise ain't Mel when it comes to suffering). What else ? Tim Robbinds wasted, John Williams rips off (Ok, pays homage to :)Bernard Herrmann big time, and we got the huge goofs of the EMP effect. Which is inadmissible unless you are a Nu Image production. War of the Frauds more or less, ET Go home, very much American politics post 9/11, thank you for the broken glass metaphor *oh, a metaphor) and that Dr. Jivago quote, sweet ! Yes, for the record, I am sarcastic. I am quite worried what Spielberg can do these days to Indiana Jones, and Cruise, god-bless M:I 3 (you can use a tripod too), what a waste of talent, money & everything ! Listen to the Jeff Wayne album instead (not the remixed one) & anyway, sensed a lot of trolls infesting the user comments here with praise Nd awe in a typical manner....???!!!!! cheap, man !
