War of the Worlds
We rented War of the Worlds this weekend. I wasn't expecting much since Ebert's review was pretty lousy--he only gave it 2 stars. I thought it was better than that. Oh sure, Tom Cruise was pretty annoying and Tim Robbins character was unnecessary. But the movie was intense, and kept me on the edge of my seat. It's the kind of movie where if you have a significant other that likes to talk a lot and bother you during movies, you might suggest that she gets on the treadmill or goes and does Tae-Bo while you are trying to watch it.
The ending to the movie was pretty unsatisfying. The credits started to roll and I was like "That's it?" But it still was worth seeing.
