It was just ok

I`ll give it 3 stars... the movie had me from beginning to almost the end... I loved it, but then hated it. I won`t be seeing this one again. The ending ruined the movie!

I can`t say it was a super bad movie, however I was disapointed in the story line and acting provided by Tom Cruise!! I would expect better from this director and actor! This is a very unoriginal blockbuster movie that is nothing but hype! I know the story of how this book was first introduced (by radio) and I think that was effective enough...adding a big director name and big (overexposed) actor to the story just made it cheesy and typical holywood crap. If your into action/special effects movie with a mediocre story lines (like Spiderman) you might enjoy this movie better than me!

Well, I am a little disappointed. The movie was ok - but the ending was very disappointing.

War of the Worlds is the greatest movie of the year. It was totally worth seeing in theatre. The acting and special affects were amazing.A 5 star movie.

A farily good film. I think Steven and company addapeted H.G Wells most beloved story with new insights. Though at times the story does feel dissosiated from the rest of the world presented here. I m not sure if the film works in it`s entirty....see it for yourself?

deja vu. I was reminded of Independence Day watching this. Actually, if you want to find out what the average Joe did while Will Smith kicked alien butt, then this is your movie. My only beef with this is how, once again, the aliens get owned by their own short sightedness. sigh. . . Bring on some smart aliens next time! 4 stars for good acting, good visuals, nice plot, dumb aliens, and a few discrepencies concerning EMP effects.

First half of the movie was just amazing. The story line could have used some work, the movie didn`t flow too well. The ending was quick, but it did make sense somewhat. It certainly wasn`t the ending I expected to see.

Just because you don`t understand the ending, does not mean it was a bad movie. Maybe if you paid attention to what was going on, instead of deciding what to write in your bad review, you would have gotten it. This was a great flick overall, keeping you on the edge of your seat throughout. I was impressed.
