Predictable - War of the Worlds Reviews

When you say Tom Cruise and Steven Spielberg in one movie, I am sure you would want a superb masterpiece in your hands right? I am deeply disappointed with the movie storyline and expected more from it. Spielberg have done Close Encounters of the Third Kind, E.T., Jurassic Park, etc... hoping that it would resembles the same pace of alien encounter but this time thinking it would sort of like Independence Day. Tom Cruise is a very good actor but I prefer if he would have became Rambo with guns blazing against alien invaders but no we need to tackle family relations, human element and anything muggles do. The action sequence was very predictable and forgive me if I am not a sci-fi afficionado but the movie should have action packed and thrown the human side out.
