My new favorite movie. Spielberg has reclaimed his throne as the god of directing, and I will bow and worship him whenever I am given the chance. The storyline was an excellent adaptation of the book and the end was faithful. Throughout the entire film my mouth was agape in awe. There is some seriously hosed up poo poo that happens in this film that you wouldn't expect Spielberg to pull, but he let loose. Then again, if you werre greenlit on the highest budget ever alloted for a single movie, you would let loose, too. ILM did a superb job with the CG effects. Even though I know for a fact that there weren't 100-foot tal tripods wandering around, I couldn't tell. The CG was so drat perfect. There wasn't a single place in the movie that looked too cartoony or unrealistic for the storyline. The blew my expectations away. Also, as an ending note, the genres that Spielberg goes through in this movie is an excellent mix. Action, suspense, horror, and drama. Throughout the entire basement scene (which lasts a good half hour), I was frozen solid. 5.5/5
