"If we're talking 1950's here I'd go with War of the Worlds"
If you can get round Tom Cruise and his tombstone teeth the second version had its good bits. The first version with the USAF 'flying wing' (I believe this was a real aircraft) was OK, but neither owed much to the book.
That's a shame but understandable. If US studios fund something this expensive to make it has to be aimed at the largest market available.
