Americans often wreck classic British novels, but this adaptation is quite good and much better than the first American version from the 1950s. More faithful too. Still Orson Welles radioplay remains the greatest adaptation to another medium and Jeff Wayne's classic musical version is also superior.

best SciFi does it beat the original? i love them both tbh and i think both movies compliment each other. Robbie is annoying in newest tho the sap 😂

Would have been good, but kid screaming is like nails down a chalkboard, and it's half the movie.
