War of the Worlds has been "Amercanized" since 1938, don't hold it against Spielberg.
As for V:
I loved the film. It's a great revenge story, and revenge stories are always enjoyable. I laughed at V's favorite film, "The Count of Monte Cristo", my favorite revenge story. It was a good movie, and though I haven't read the graphic novel, I can at least say that there's no way it's a discredit to the source material. It's a far cry from Extrodinary Gentleman, one of the worst movies I've seen in recent memory.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
