Basics of War of the Worlds
Title: War of the Worlds
Director: Steven Spielberg
Cast: Tom Cruise, Dakota Fanning, Justin Chatwin and Tim Robinson
Synopsis: The year is 2005 and the aliens have decided to attack. Ray Forrester, a divorced father of two, has custody of his children during the time of the invasion and must fight the odds to keep his kids alive.
Appealing: Special Effects, perfomances by Justin Chatwin and Dakota Fanning
Unappealing: Tom Cruise and, well, Tom Cruise
Notes: This film is also an adaptaion, based on the book by H.G.Wells. Visually very pleasing, although it has an incredibly weak ending with a lot of plot holes. (How does Robbie get to Boston? How come when Ray gets sucked up the tripod, everyone pulls him down but nobody tries for anyone else? Is it because it's Tom Cruise?)
