Raced off to see this movie straight after work in Australia. All excited. Now I am all flat.
Plot- bit silly. Why would Marshians leave there machines buried in the ground for a 1 million years. Why didnt we dig one up when they are only 10 meters underground in the cities. Why not take over the planet a million years ago. HG Well book had a far better beginning. ie. They came in space crafts.Ending was dull as well. Seemed to end 20 minutes earlier than what you expected. I was like hey, lets just jump to the ending of the movie here.
Where was the excitement ?
EG.
Ferry crossing scene, dull and boring. Where was the Thunderchild in the orginal book at the ferry ? !!!! or aleast a police boat with a cop with a hand gun would have added something.
Special Effects
Yes, they are good but not on a macro scale. Where were the scenes of huge battles of the USA taking on the tripods ? Two tanks a a few hummers on a rigid fighting stuff you can't see..... boring.
Overall Rating C-.
My advice is to go and buy the HG Wells book. |
