is this the worst spielberg movie?
i just finished watching it on tv and wow it was really bad. good cgi and good music, some cool shots here and there but everything else was awful.
the characters are all terrible, stupid, or unlikable. tom cruise is a lazy piece of shit who openly neglects his kids and goes on a journey to dump them off so he can be alone. wow, what a great guy. i really want to see him succeed!!! not. he is always right and he literally dodges lazers like he's in mission impossible. that one edgy teen is so stupid with his "i wanna fight back!" crap like really? the kid literally runs off into a blazing battlefield! so stupid. dakoda fanning is ungodly annoying, all she does is scream. tim ribbins plays the worst character of all time. what were the writers thinking with him? and who was that random woman they meet on the boat, acting like they were buddies? the funniest part is when tom cruise's boss would rather argue about their job while there is a giant alien tripod blowing up stuff behind theim! he even gets blasted away and he doesn't even care!!! HOW DO THESE GINORMOUS TRIPODS KEEP SNEAKING UP ON PEOPLE??? THEY ARE 50 STORIES TALL! YET in 90% of the scenes they just appear out of nowhere. people seriously cant hear or see these things the size of skyscrapers walking towards them???
sorry i rambled on but yeah this movie sucks. i remember it being awesome but i was shocked at how much i disliked it, besides a few cool explosion scenes. i cant think of a worse spielberg flick. maybe always? even indy 4 is better.
