Wells's seminal classic, the sci-fi adventure thriller reveals the extraordinary battle for the fut ure of humankind through the eyes of one American family fighting to survive it. A remake of the 1953 science fiction classic WAR O F THE WORLDS. Review: 5 star film, no star blu ray transfer(sadly) - Just to be clear. The 5 stars are for this film. I love it and despite reading quite a number of bad reviews for the blu ray version I figured that the larger percentage of people thought it was better. So I decided to try the blue ray. Be warned. The transfer to blu ray is dreadful! Grainy as people have commented previously, not so much the interior shots, but awful with the exterior shots. I do not believe in anyway that the film was "meant to be grainy". I have a dvd copy and the picture quality is sharp, colourful and pristine!! I wont be sending it back as it is my own fault that I purchased it(I read a number of negative reviews but was curious). Plus this is the very first time EVER that I,ve been dissapointed with the quality of blu ray. I was even able to put both versions side by side on two seperate screens and I promise you that the dvd quality far outshines the blu ray. No grainy picture quality anywhere on the dvd copy. Of course people will always draw their own conclusions and people,s perceptions are as varied and different as the universe is endless. But for what its worth it is a dreadful transfer to blu ray. I plan to upgrade to blu ray on Lord Of The Rings, Hobbit, Harry Potter, King Kong 2005, Volcano, Independance Day, etc, but will be far more cautious. The Back To The Future trilogy on blu ray is a prime example of how it should be done and can be done. Now that kind of quality on War Of The Worlds would have been amazing!!:) Review: Great movie and always good to own a physical copy these days - Great movie and always good to own a physical copy these days ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Tom Cruise | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 503 Reviews | | Format | Blu-ray | | Genre | Military & War, Science Fiction | | Global Trade Identification Number | 05051368216812 | | Language | English, French, German, Italian, Spanish | | Manufacturer | Paramount Home Entertainment | | Number of discs | 1 | | Runtime | 1 hour and 56 minutes | ## Product Details - **Genre:** Military & War, Science Fiction - **Format:** Blu-ray - **Contributor:** Tom Cruise - **Language:** English, French, German, Italian, Spanish - **Runtime:** 1 hour and 56 minutes ## Images ![War of The Worlds - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81TZb92p-+L.jpg) ![War of The Worlds - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91wo84cTX1L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 star film, no star blu ray transfer(sadly) *by R***N on 17 October 2016* Just to be clear.

I was pretty excited when I heard that Spielberg had the rights to finally bring it into the CGI era. At the same time I was gutted when he got it wrong. Actually, I'm not even sure he got it wrong, it's just Tom Cruise is horrific. As much as I like Dakota Fanning, there's no point in her character or the 'trying to be a typical teenager' brother, that I just wish could have been zapped in the fist quarter. Steven, why couldn't we just have had a simple journalist? Why did I buy it? For the effects of course! Just awesome - some of my favourite scenes ever. On the HD front, it's grainy - very grainy at times. It's the way Spielberg intended it to be. And a dull palette too so HD can't do much to add to the vividness. The audio is stunning though. Soooo immersive, the sounds when the tripods first come on the scene are terrifying. Got a sub woofer? Turn it off unless you want structural damage! The audio makes buying this on BD mcuh more beneficial.
