Finally, a scary movie that's actually scary. I was beginning to wonder if a movie even could scare me.
I saw War of the Worlds today. That movie was awesome! Okay, so Stephen Spielberg went on his usual bout of accuracy before awesomeness, but there was enough people frying and building crushing to suffice. By the way, don't bring kids to this movie.
The movie, for those who didn't know, is based on H G Wells' novel of the same title, except placed in the early 21st century. A divorced Dad is taking care of his children, when suddenly aliens attack. He then attempts to bring his children back to their mother. It sounds like the perfect B movie, but Stephen Spielberg did it, and he can't make crap (even though he seems to be trying).
I can't say much or I'll ruin the movie, but let's just say that there's never a dull moment. It's not quotable though. Only one line was even memorable... wait, I forgot that line too. On a scale of 1 to 10, this movie ranks about 8, just because Spielberg worries far too much on realism over filling the thing with awsome lines and butt kicking.
So go ahead and see it; just don't expect it to be your cliché alien invasion movie.
