| War of the Worlds with Tom Cruise delivers what it promised. A solid alien invasion story which follows a father, a dead-beat dad, who is trying to save his family. He cares nothing about the aliens, who they are, why they are here. He cares only about his kids and saving them.

The only problem I had was the idea that the machines had been buried and waiting for who knows how long. Yet that idea came from a character and could have been just a guess on her part. The special feature about designing the tripods and the aliens was interesting but the movie easily stands all by itself. You don't need extras for it. Get it used or new, but get it. |
