<p dir="auto">Hey, not looking for an argument but I am really curious as to why this movie got quite a bit of hate?<br />
I have not read the novel and would like to know what was changed or how they differ? Regardless, I stand by that the acting was top, whether the story was up to scratch or not.

There is a scene in the film that clearly shows the Martians sucking the blood out of a captured human and fertilizing the red weed with it.<br />

There was blood spraying all over the place, are you blind?<br />

<p dir="auto">I always got the impression that this film was not well regarded by most. I was shocked to see the Metascore was so high. I like the film quite a bit, but I can understand some of the criticisms.<br />
The idea of plot holes and annoying performances seems valid, but this is a movie about aliens invading. I can't say I care about those plot holes in light of that.<br />
This is also a lot darker than I would expect from Spielberg. He cuts the violent scene from "Jaws," yet in this film aliens vaporize people left and right, and spray blood all over the place.  I would not have guessed he made this if I did not know any better.</p>

<p dir="auto">TR's character did not give up - quite the opposite, he was ranting about how they had to dig a tunnel to connect up with the resistance because it's a fact of history that occupiers can never hold territory against insurgencies. You are projecting your ideology into your memory of the film.</p>

<p dir="auto">No it wasn't extraneous, it was a metaphor between the two types of personalites. Those who want to live(cruise) and those who have basically given up(Tim robbin's character) or something along those lines.<br />
I rather them keep the book ending, because there is no way in hell you destroy alien technology with our technology right now. Unless you want to upload a virus via mac.<br />

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

<p dir="auto">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.<br />
