A War To End All Wars

Movie Review
War of the World
Directed by: Steven Spielberg
Starring: Tom Cruise, Dakota Fanning, Tim Robbins

Ray Ferrier is a divorced father of two children, a son named Robbie (Justin Chatwin) and a younger daughter named Rachel (Dakota Fanning). He's not exactly a family man, but he loves his children. Their mother dropped them off at his place from time to time to let them spend some time with their father. It is during one of these visits that strange things start happening and people get killed by an allien race hell-bent on conquering Earth.

Once again Steven Spielberg delivered a roller coaster of a movie. There's nothing incredible in the ways of the acting. Tom Cruise, Dakota Fanning, and Tim Robbins delivered an adequate acting to keep the story going, but in my opinion it's the special effect that takes center stage here in this movie. Coupled with a good cinematography that is Spielberg's trademark, this movie delivered quite a blast.

Go see this movie while it's still playing in the cinema. This goes especially to those who love special-effect movies. It won't be the same seeing it on DVD, except if you have an over-the-top sound system at home.

This movie might also be a good inspiration for a cold remedy ad.

And another thing that I feel I must quote from some of the commentators in IMDB.com: why the hell are the cameras and digicams working during the beginning of the invasion? They should be disabled!
