War of the Worlds (2005)
Jude and I left the theater wondering what the fuss was about. It's truly unfortunate when watching the trailers precludes having to actually go to see the movie.
The fact that even Jude wasn't scared by anything in the movie is telling.
While I enjoyed Dakota Fanning's performance, there were too many questions unanswered in this rendition of H.G. Wells' excellent story.
Some have compared this to the status of "Close Encounters", but I would watch that film many times before watching this one again.
