Entertainment Weekly - p.90 - David Everitt (09/20/1996)

"...George Pal's primitive but Oscar winning special effects still look 'cool' in THE WAR OF THE WORLDS..."
USA Today - Mike Clark (05/07/1999)

"Paramount's Technicolor was the era's most vibrant, and Gordon Jennings' now-primitive Oscar-winning effects still look cool in this George Pal production."
USA Today - Mike Clark (06/28/2005)
