I agree with SwissCM, in that it was sort of perfect in the way that you really only see what happens through Tom Cruise and his family's point of view. Like, for example, when the aliens come into the basement. There was no huge dramatic musical score, no big entrance where the camera centers on these bizarre creatures, we see it just as Tom Cruise does; with a mixture of quiet terror and confusion as these things slowly move in and out of the shadows of the basement. My only negative reaction was to the ending. I haven't read the book that it apparently followed closely, but I already sort of knew what was coming something involving the aliens being defeated by germs, but I'm sure several people might not catch on. This isn't a gripe saying they should've dumbed it down for the average mindless moviegoer, but it just cuts so abruptly from Hey Tom Cruise saved his family and everyone's okay to By the way? The reason the aliens are dying is germs. I just think there could've been a bit more exposition to that aspect. 4/5
