I wasn’t too sure about the release of a reworking of Romero’s classic, I’m a big fan of the original movie and love the look of it in black & white, the colourised version that was released ruined it for me. So the idea of an animated version had me wondering how it would work and if it would bring anything to the original movie.

I remember watching this movie with my grandparents when I was a kid. We all enjoyed it and laughed so much at things like the leg lamp, Ralphie saying the big bomb swear word, and so much more. It's become a tradition in our house to watch it every Christmas season because it's funny and full of heart as well. It's a wonderful classic.

Here's the paradox: H.G. Wells' original novel is an absolute classic. The 1953 film version is not particularly faithful to the book, but still really a classic. Spielberg's film kind of tries to split the difference between the two and ends up not being a classic. (Maybe he should have kept the definite article in the title.) Belligerent aliens whose technological mastery is oddly lacking when it comes to getting their vaccinations embark upon slightly eccentric invasion scheme; Tom Cruise spends most of the film running away, bravely.

Still, it's not all bad: looking back on it, this is yet another of those films which attempts to use SF as a device to try and process the September 11th attacks and ends up not being nearly as profound as it thinks it is, and the way it's structured so that, hey, cities are smashed and thousands slaughtered by the Martians (look, they could be Martians, it doesn't say they're not), but at least Cruise gets to become a better dad, so it's not all bad news, is quite fatuous. But it does get closer to Wells' original intent, just about, it looks very good, and there's always Spielberg's casual mastery of the genre to enjoy. A decent stab at a book which probably isn't as easy to adapt as it first appears.
