| This classic 1953 version of War of the Worlds is much better than the recent re-make. I also found the commentaries very interesting. The included audio copy of the original Orson Wells broadcast of War of the Worlds is a gem! |

| "Excellent!" | 2009-06-17 |

When a meteor comes down in an out-of-the-way western town, it seems that they finally have something to put the town on the map. However, when it turns out that the "meteor" is actually a reentry vehicle for a Martian invasion force, its bad news for everyone. Dr. Clayton Forrester (played by Gene Barry) finds himself caught up in the Martian invasion, trying to stay out in front of the invaders, and hopefully find a way to stop them. But, there's surprises out there, some more frightening than he could have feared, and others more wonderful than he could have hoped for.
This excellent movie was released in 1953, which might make you expect that it is not worth seeing. But, be ready for a surprise. In fact, this movie is quite excellent! The special effects have stood up quite well, with the Martian war machines still looking threatening and futuristic 55 years later. Also, the story is quite interesting, and the action gripping.
I have enjoyed this movie repeatedly over my entire life, and I enjoyed introducing my 15-year-old son to the movie (he liked it too). So, if you want a good science-fiction movie, one that will keep you glued to the screen, then get this movie. I give it my highest recommendations! |

 "Amazing For Its Day" | 2009-06-01 |
| - Reviewed By ccthemovieman |
I really enjoyed this the first two times I saw it but on the third, several years ago, t seemed to have lost its impact. Maybe that's because I had just watched the re-make and it was pretty hard to top the special-effects in that film.
Still.....for its day - over 55 years ago -this "original" movie had amazing special-effects. The alien ships still look cool and probably always will.
Gene Barry is fine in the lead role and I appreciated the very ending in which God, not man, is given glory for the cessation of violence. This is a movie where people actually pray for help. I didn't see that in the re-make, of course.

The movie itself was excellent! In wonderful condition, I couldn't be happier. . .my only complaint is not with the condition of the movie. . .
Just with the way it got to me. . it took a MONTH ! ! ! I am extremely
displeased with MovieMars! They screwed up with the shipping (sending it
International)I couldn't track it because the tracking number they gave
me was no good! I will think long and hard before I order something from
them again (even if I have to spend a couple more bucks) |
