Review of War of the Worlds (2005) by Jiri B — 22 Oct 2015
?WotW? is incredibly familiar, feeling more like a run-of-the-mill action-disaster than a Spielberg movie. Not that it?s terrible: the action is good and authentic feeling, and there?s some cool stuff about the brutality of humanity within a crisis.
But the family dynamic is abrasive and inconsistent, and I HATE in movies when science-y stuff happens for no real reason except to be ?mysterious? (The wind blows TOWARD the storm! The ground isn?t hot, it?s COLD!) Just a forgettable adaptation of an overrated story.
