Great, I haven't seen the movie, and now I'm not going to.
If he, or any of his screenwriters, producers, friends, actors/actresses, think that they are legit Americans...
We better pray that them Holly'wierds' invent an actual Time Machine first, so as to send themselves back in time to Any of our US war periods[ i.e., Pre-Vietnam War]...
...so that they can na'er return.
Usually she's upbeat about most movies, but even she said it was a bad movie. Bad plot, bad dialog, bad acting, etc. It's a movie that never gets where it should be going, starts with people running scared, and never gets beyond that. No heroics, that would be a bad thing in their mind.
One guy (out of all the people in the movie) wants to fight back against the evil Martians aith a gun, and they portray him as a madman and Cruise ends up killing the sap. Cruise's son wants to join up with some soldiers to fight back, and Cruise is desperately trying to convince him that's wrong.
Hollyweird is wondering why people aren't bothering with going to the movies. But they're not listening to true Americans who are fed up with their crappy subliminal messages (and bad movies).
Another stupid Hollyweird type opens his pie hole. The Hollyweird moguls don't seem to get it that most Americans are turned off by the offal that comes out on film these days.
BTW, when Tom Clancy wrote the Sum of All Fears the villains were Muslims. When the movie came out the villains had suddenly morphed into blond blue-eyed Norgwegians (my apologies to any Norwegian Freepers) or something like that. Another example of Hollyweird not getting it.
Hollywood glamour and Hollywood heroes are dead.
Today ther is only Hollywood nakedness and no heroes...only a bunch of self absorbed nobodies.
Good riddance hollywood.
Does anyone know how long it took Hollywood to produce a war movie after Pearl Harbor? I'd wager (if I wuz the wagerin' type) that it didn't take over two years.
