Excellent movie review by Roger Ebert

Here is an excellent critique of the War of the Worlds movie by Roger Ebert, pointing out some of the many flaws and the lack of quality in the movie. This review is analytical and insightful. However, it does not cover all the flaws, probably because there are too many flaws to cover in a single reasonable length review.

I wish I could have my 10 bucks back.

Warning to anyone considering seeing it: save your money. See Batman Begins if you must go the movies this summer.

Hollywood is a trash factory. Most of the films being produced are sequels and remakes. The rest are exercises in special effects.

Narnia may be the only redeeming movie of the year, and it is still 5 month away.

Ebert is very good when he stays out of politics.

I liked it. The special effects are great. Batman Begins is a much better movie but I don't regret going to see War of the Worlds.

not having seen it....here goes. First, War of the Worlds was remade around 8 years ago. It was called Independence Day and the aliens were killed with a virus (albeit a computer virus)

second. Mr. Ebert may be a good movie reviewer, but knows little about physics. A tripod is a very stable platform. a four legged platform always has the tendency to wobble about on 3 legs unless the surface and the legs are perfect level and a perfectly length. A tripod always has all legs on the ground.

All that being said, it seems this one is a bust and I will wait for the video.

Guess I'm in the minority this time cause I loved it, so much so I saw it twice. Batman flick was the boring one to me; needed a bit more action for my taste.

Frankly Ebert is a terrible reviewer. I hate pretty much everything he recommends. I go with Roepper. There isn’t much he likes, so when he chooses something I go for it. I rather liked War of the Worlds. Maybe it wasn’t the way I would have done it, but it was a fairly decent movie. I could use less character development and more action, but that’s just me.

The only movie I plan to see this summer is "March of the Penguins." No overpaid whiny Hollywood actors in that one.
