Thumbs down War of the Worlds = blah!

Well ... saw it last night and it was a a major let down. I'd have expected a lot more from Stevo! The only thing that kept me interested was the stunning CGI. All in all ... felt like Independance Day II. I'd give this a 6 out of 10. Booooooo!

On a side note ... an '05 G35 was represent'n towards the end of the movie!

i saw it last night too, reminded me of independence day as well. visual effects were very nice and all but the ending left me and my friends flabbergasted (in a negative way). doesn't help that the last movie i saw was batman. well, the last TWO actually

ending sucked! it could have used another 10 minutes or so to have the resolution apparent. so many problems with the movie! btw, i would love to own a van that can run for an entire day and a half on a tank of gas! also , the clear paths they always had while driving were rediculous too.

I refuse to watch Independence day II on the grounds that I'm so sick of seeing "TomKat" hype up their movies. However, I still plan on watching Batman Begins.

Wait for Jessica Alba or Jessica Simpson or my favorite Jessica Biel later this summer

But out of the 3 you listed the only one I haven't seen is the Smith film, Angelina is worth the price of admission, I could look at that a$$ all day long
