I can't say that it was great; not even good. It feels like using that sort of adjective to describe the horror and terror I felt while watching this movie is absurd. Without a doubt, War of the Worlds is the scariest movie I've ever seen.
I've read a handful of comments elsewhere on the 'net from people that were less moved by the movie. Unusually, I can't fathom how they were not absolutely terrified by some of the imagery and implications in this movie.

**SPOILER**
I went to see Land of the dead first, so this movie was a comedy[not literally though] to me. Anyways, the story was definitely lacking and they could've added more specific elements to it. The first part of it was interesting with a lot of suspense, but it started to bug me half way through because it was all about staying away from the laser beams and keeping his daughter safe. There was very little about the creatures and about no explanation to how, when or where they formed/came from. As Corey said, the end of the movie was just bleh, cant explain. Overall, I didn't like it - I guess because its different and in a normal movie you'd expect the hero to physically fight against the enemies which was not there a whole lot in this movie and it would include the discovery of new elements and such.
