We saw War of the Worlds Movie last night on impulse. Opening night!

I’m glad I went, but I don’t know how good it was. It was just…OK. I sort of lost it when Tom Cruise started singing to Dakota Fanning. That was definitely the point when I whipped out my imaginary Tivo remote control and hit 30 second skip a few times. What was that really - a way to deal with the fact that they had run out of special effects?

And what about Dakota? Did she really strech herself here or will she be doomed to be this generation’s Carol Ann?

The whole thing was sort of anti-climactic. That plus Tom’s recent showing in the press may be adding up to a bad combination over all. I think he should drink some Ginseng tea, take a few breaths, and maybe duck out of the limelight for a bit. Tom, if it’s going to happen, it will happen, don’t worry.
