What a film!!!

Rating: 9/10 (15 November 2005)

PLOT SPOILER (as if you didn't already know how it ends) I watched this film at the cinema, now on DVD. It is excellent. From all reviews I've read, viewer fall into 1 of 2 categories, they love it or hate it. I love it. and heres why * The main character is a real person, someone you can relate to without being special forces or some hot shot pilot (independance day). * Any parent will empathise with the main character as he strives to keep his daughter from harm. * The end (which seem to attract the most criticism) is the most plausible ending there could be. Disease has killed more, far more than any war or weapon. So isn't it quite reasonable, alien invaders would be so intolerant.
Only one negative point. The original book which was first released in 1898, written by HG Wells and was based in England. It would of been good if the film reflected that. However, its made with American money and they make much better films than we Brits do.
