War of the Worlds 2: The Next Wave (2008)

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Well I wasn't sure what language this film was made in - so I put it through Babel Fish. Here is a typical line translated:'Blah blah blah..blah blah blah blah, blah de blah'.This actually makes more sense than the lines the actors were uttering.Effects wise I spotted left over props from Voyage to the bottom of the Sea (Think Giant squids and Fish Men)Best line (from a cigar smoking middle aged Man to a 9 year old) 'This World's become a place where boys like you and me have to grow up fast' (he looks at least 50 for God's sake)This film makes a previous SyFy effort (Savage planet - about alien killer bears) look like a masterpiece.Great going guys :)

This is a sequel to a straight to video version that was made around the same time as Spielbergs version. It stars C. Thomas Howell. After he appeared in the first film he decided that he could do a better job with the sequel and took the helm as director. Yes, it is every bit as sh1te and avoidable as it sounds. However, one of the co-stars, a Mr. Christopher Reid, who plays the character 'Pete'. His most notable achievement was the character 'Kid' in the Kid 'n' Play films from the late 80's / early 90's. His most notable achievement until now! He is quite simply the single most worst actor ever. EVER. If, instead of him, they had hired some clueless gimp off the street, not given them a script or any inkling as to what part they were playing or what they were supposed to be doing, they would have done a better job. It's this performance that makes the film worth watching. The part has made him a legend in my eyes. Absolute legend. Do yourself a service and watch this film.

I mean, what?!? Who in their right mind would make such a film? Well the answer to that is C.Thomas Howell, and judging by the appearance of the man he ain't in his right mind. To star in and direct this tripe has clearly got to the lad and that might explain why his acting is almost the worst i have ever seen, but not quite....That title goes to the incomparable Kim Little. Good God! I just noticed that she was also in the first one playing a different character. Really, she was that good they thought, Yeh, get Kim for the sequel, she's the business!?! The film itself is unutterable bilge. Claw your eyes out to ease the pain type of thing. A script a rabid monkey clearly wrote, while on a bender. Fx from Doctor Who circa 1973. Don't worry though after half an hour your brain will have stopped all higher functions and you will be sitting there, drooling, not even knowing your own name.The only saving grace for me was that i caught this on TV and didn't shell out for this on Video like some. If my Video shop stocked this i would have to immediately leave the premises and pray to almighty Bhudda that it was obliterated by invading Aliens.The only reason they make this stuff is to try and trick some money from you.Write a letter to your Congressman, e-mail the Pope, phone the President! We have watched this so you don't have to. Save yourselves! Don't, Just Don't.

I am stuck for words as to how bad this movie is. The actors could teach trees to be wooden, plot had more holes than swiss cheese and 'Victoria's' accent!?!?! I can't believe she has even been to America the way speaks.I quite enjoy a good B movie, however, this was supposed to be a high gloss Sci Fi as the irony was missing, the casting agent, directors and production should perform ritual suicide for letting this get finished with their names attached.It staggers belief to think that while filming this movie, anyone could have been happy with the day's work.
