Why did a lot of people hate this movie? Genuinely interested?

No no no dumb child. Everything you said is wrong. I actually like popcorn flicks, CGI, and even Tom Cruise. He's genuinely a great actor and I couldn't give two sh#$s about his personal life. The Last Samurai is one of my fav movies as is A Few Good Men and Rain Man.
Tom Cruise did not bother me much in this movie and if you even read what I said, I didn't say a damn thing about Tom. The only thing that bothered me about Tom was that he actually gave two sh#$s about those two worthless brats.
The CGI in this movie was fantastic and has some really awe inspiring scenes. Seeing the tripods move along the country side is really something to behold.
And as a dumb popcorn flick it succeeds in capturing the viewer's attention. It's definitely not boring by any stretch of the imagination. It's just bad. -

Yes. This. And referring to someone as a child simply because they disagree with you is the most childish thing I can imagine. Archeoterrex: your own words betray you and expose your insecurities.

I think it fails because:
-The Robby subplot was just dead weight.
-The farmhouse scene went on too long, and the threatening situation with Tim Robbins's character was extraneous to the plot.
-The story ending from the book is only semi-credible and anti-climactic. Both films suffer as a result.
