War of the Worlds

Post by back2coney »

As folks often chat about movies in this section I thought I should advise anyone who hasn't seen War of the Worlds yet to catch it in the cinema before it goes, I thought it was awesome and had me thrilled to the very end. Great Stuff...don't leave it too late!

I haven't seen it yet, but I really like Dakota Fanning! I recently saw her movie Hide and Seek, and it scared me!! It was really creepy and she's such a good actress.

I thought War of The Worlds was OK. Batman Begins was better (that comes from someone who usually hates superhero movies!).

Funny thing is killing and stuff won't freak me out, but scenes of just sheer panic and pandemonium do. Perfect example: that scene in the 50's War of the Worlds where it shows the city evacuating, while some kid eats ice cream from a toppled over cart. Just scenes of sheer disorder freak me out, not to mention that that kid simply had no idea what was going to happen.
