I saw war of the worlds. What is this? I'm insulted. I wasted 2 hours of my life, completely unnecessarily. I would like to ask mr Spielberg how he thinks he can make up those 2 hours of my life back to me.
*SPOILEEEEEEERS!*
OK so.. how many of you seen it? Me thinks this prolly was the worst movie of the year so far. The ONLY weird thing was that I think Tom Cruise didn't suck. Everything else did. Including Tim Robbins, which I thought was impossible.
I don't expect realism or logics in movies, if I wanted that, I'd watch only documentaries. But it's cases like this when the makers of the movie thinks you just don't have brains at all that makes you feel robbed, angry and insulted.
First of all.. the machines come here, balls to the wall, no explanations except 'they've been watching us'. OK.. I guess that can go by, but what about the 'beams'? How stupid were those anyway? And why did they have the bug type of feel to them, so that us, audience, could go 'oooh I hate those bastards with bug like features!'. INSECTS INSECTS!
Then they start blasting everything that seems like a battle from .. I don't know, some UN infested place. For so advanced machines, it seemed quite ineffective, blasting with small beams, taking one person out per time. Hey, we got nukes, why don't they have anything but stupid beams? And for intelligent creatures, they sure started it wisely, from small towns. Yeah, let's kill all and start from farms, see, it'll take only few months until we get to big cities, and that's just a good thing to do. Oh yeah.. what ever.
OK!! FINE BY ME IT'S HOLLYWOOD.
But then.... when Tom and the girl got sucked into the 'gasoline tank', and the thing that was able to deflect all rockets and everything, got few small granades in, totally exploded and got owned? What is this?
Then it 'died'. And what happened to the others? Did they get so sad that one crashed, that they got all tears up and wimped out too? Then the soldiers rocketed one baby more, and suddenly they don't got shields? How did that happen? ONe got 'irrational, going on circles'.. wtf?
It's ID4 all over again. OMG THEY ARE COMING RIGHT FOR US! Heyyyy wait a minute, I came up with the most stupid plan ever how to fight these and *WHAM* game over we win, bring out the champagne and all that.
I can't even remember all the stupidities in this movie, well the end was my favourite where EVERYONE survived. What is this? If you go to a theater to see this, and the crowd cheers at the end, sneak out right away, nothing happens after that in the movie, close the doors and jam them so no one can get out and torch the place. These are the kind of people that are the reason why this kind of **** makes it to the screen. This competes up there with the Day After Tomorrow... just horrible.
