It was bad but far from the worst I've ever seen. I did appreciate some of the homage paid to George Pal's version and the SFX, while there was far too much of it, was well done.
One a scale of 1 to 10 I would give Spielberg's "War of the Worlds" a 5.
Since "Mars Attacks", a movie of which I am a huge fan, I have been unable to watch any movie with evil aliens without hearing "Indian Love Call" somewhere in the depths of my sick mind.
