Review: Great - Great product and great price Review: Spielberg and desertcart at their best - After ordering the movies "War of the Worlds" and "Minority Report (Widescreen Two-Disc Special Edition)" from desertcart. Both movies arrived the same day, exactly one day before it was supposed to arrive. desertcart never quits when it comes to postal quality and delivery. The movie in of itself is a tremendous work of storytelling. Based off of H.G Well's War of the Worlds, Steven Spielberg imputed his own unique twist to the story. Originally I thought it was a terrible idea for Spielberg to make additions to the original story, but many of the most important key features from the original story are in the film. However, Spielberg based the movie off of his own childhood. Tom Cruise "Ray", portrays a divorced husband, whom will be taking care of his two children for the next few months. His eight year old daughter, and teen son, are often caught in confrontations when the Aliens invade Earth. Ray ends up becoming a struggling father figure who attempts to come into terms with his children. His daughter is obedient and curious, and his son is rebellious teenager whom clashes with his father on several occasions. The original inspiration, Spielberg had for the film, was based on (Like I said before) childhood he had growing up. After his father divorced with his mother, Spielberg originally felt at fault, but he later found his father to be at fault for his not-so-good childhood. Like the character Tom Cruise plays, Spielberg's father was never really there for him as a child who was in need of a father figure. The greatest moral to the story is, how much Ray "Tom Cruise" tries to bond with his kids, when the aliens invade the Earth. Despite a great story, Steven Spielberg does not wimp out on the intensity of the situations at hand in the film. Spielberg does a great job at portraying a paranoia that one can experience when something like this occurs. The movie is rated PG-13 for a reason, for frightening situations of sci-fi violence, and for language. This is not a movie meant for kids or family, but is a great action, adventure, sci-fi movie for teens and adults. The movie also possesses a great Biblical message on he bond between children and their father. The movie is a great reason that divorce is and should be morally unacceptable.
