Movies these days. Didn't see this one in a theater, but tried to watch the DVD. Are all movies these days made for dumb 14 - 19 year old males? Cruise runs out of his house and immedately jumps in the only vehicle running in the entire city of New York. How convenient. Everybody else has to walk. Later a plane crashes fifteen feet from same vehicle and it survives without a scratch. Cruise and family jumps in again and drives off on a ready-made path through the debris. Even my six-year-old at this point says, "It sure was lucky their car didn't get wrecked. How'd that happen?" I leave the room and said film to the kiddies. What a disappointment. I sort of liked the version made in the fifties. At least it's 100% better than the Spielberg version. Sheesh.
Follow Ups:
How about the kitchen scene where he is making peanut butter sandwiches with the crap he brought from his apartment and doesn't even bother to look in the refrigerator?
The whole concept of the tripods being buried a million years ago was dumber then dirt as well.
Yea, I thought so too. After all, if the Martians had been here back then to bury the pods, then why not just take over the earth then? It would have been easier than waiting umpteen years, and then do it.
Did everyone get Gene Berry's (from the original) cameo at the end?
I found it very disappointing, unengaging and it missed many important parts from the H.G Wells novel.AP

WIfe rented for kids' Friday night movie at home. I made the mistake of trying to watch it too. The popcorn is good.
Spielberg delivers exactly what public wants to see. I presume the film is making money. Who is to blame? I presume you paid to see it - or your friends did. That money tells Spielberg: "This is what they want! They want MORE!"
