Great !

Rating: 10/10 (2 July 2005)

My son and I went to see the movie and thought it was great.Truer to the book than the original "War Of The Worlds "movie. The martian ships were just as described in the book. The transfer of eras was interesting and done very well considering there were no cars and tanks in the original story. I felt Tom Cruise was great in this and I am not a huge fan of his.The movie is just graphic enough but not so graphic that it looks like a slasher movie.Great opening and close of the movie,yet quick to action.Pick up a book and compare it for yourself.As long as you aren't someone who is going to pick it apart and expect perfection you should thoroughly enjoy this movie.
