After getting home from seeing the latest “Top Gun” film, Netflix suggested that I watch “War of the Worlds”, which I remember as being a fine movie, but that there’s been a couple better made adaptations of the story in recent memory from 2019 period piece mini series to the 2019 ongoing modern series. I also remember that I had some big complaints about the amount of screaming in the film from a young Dakota Fanning, which still holds up as a grudge I have against the movie, it’s a minor complaint in comparison to the weight of film itself and I would only make it since it’s an easy nit to pick. Something that I do have a major complaint about is the quality of the stream, I’m not sure if the film has always been this muddy or if it was something with Netflix, but I felt like I had Vaseline on my glasses for the entire movie.
I did laugh a small sad laugh when the first reports of weird stuff going on are from “the Ukraine”.
