If you loved A Perfect Getaway, try War of the Worlds

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Theysit in Adventure / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to A Perfect Getaway, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What War of the Worlds is

New Jersey, late summer, a looming storm cloud. A divorced father's weekend with his kids turns into a desperate fight for survival, alien machines rising from the earth. Spielberg revisits classic sci-fi with modern urgency.
