OK then, it's another fine British story set in America - just like the radio plays...

I write down everything I want to remember. That way, instead of spending a lot of time trying to remember what it is I wrote down, I spend the time looking for the paper I wrote it down on.

they were saying that before anyone had even seen it, because the last film that they didnt let anyone preview was the avengers.

what a shame.







Unless the  :whistle:  means that it was good and madness is trying to throw us off....im on to you.  :ph34r:

It's basically dumb and thinks it's audience is dumb. Why did they invade? Who knows? Why did they invade in the cack-handed way they did? Who knows? Why did they want to harvest humans? Who knows? Why did they kill so many. Who knows? I

It could have been Gladiator but ended up being Troy. I'd expect better from Speilberg. But as soon as I heard they had yanked it forward to modern times and across the Altantic to America, I began to worry it was going to be another ID4 cop out.

It's not a bad film. In fact it has some really good moments and a wonderful gritty style. But Speilberg and Cruise were coasting and ultimately the film was disappointing. Just like Troy it could have been so much more than it was.

Whatever's gone wrong it's not my fault.

Excellent visuals and an overall brilliant experience. yes the ending could be improved but much better than some on Speilberg's recent ventures such as Taken. I hope he strives to new levels with his new flashier visuals.

Awful, awful, film.  Like Smilo alludes to - plot holes you can drive a bus through.   Did anyone actually check the script before they decided to film it? :angry2:

Save yourself £6 and get out in the sun. :thumbsdown:

aye it was v poor good special effects so so glad i didnt pay £6 though ;)

went to see this few days ago, thought it was v good.
Looking beyond the special effects (which were xlnt) to the characters and how crappy a Dad TC was.  The girl was xlnt as she usually is.

Who gives a toss why the aliens came, who gives a toss how TC managed to dodge every deatch-ray/flying vehicle/collapsing building (A-team style).
