well and not quite scary . more like goofy . i think the slapstick of this movie be like whistle in a cemetery and false bravado . the world be a scary place and and it do no good to simply gloss over horror by ignore and laugh at it with hysteria and in my opinion . this movie be too clever by half . the war of the world be parody a simply an excuse for non stop saturday night live gag . saw and saw ii be the occasion for shaquille oneal and doctor phil and of all people and to share a torture chamber . and and other reference to movie such a brokeback mountain and others be simply the background for ridiculous and even disgust behavior . craig bierko and beau mirchoff be charm a the war of the world father and son . the other member of the ensemble be only mildly entertain a they woodenly go through their pace and utter their silly line . the utter silliness of the parody be annoy as well a shallow . horror be real . slapstick comedy be real . but and it be really boring to see horror assign to update abbott and costello or three stooge gag routine . this debase both genre .
