With envious eyes they watched (他們在覬覦)
It's time for Earth to be mercilessly attacked by aliens－yet again. After all, it hasn't happened since 1996, when Hollywood gave us two alien invasions：the hilarious Mars Attacks and the big and exciting independence Day.

mercilessly(adv)無情地，殘忍地
alien(n)外星人
invasions(n)侵略，侵入

The fact is, director Steven Spieberg was planning to make War of the Worlds before those two films came out, but he postponed it to avoid overkilling the theme. But now, the time for overkill has arrived. After several failed attempts by vampires, mummies, terrorists, asteroids and even the weather to destory Earth, our old enemy the Martians will have another try.
overkill(v)做得太過火，亦指過度殺戮

asteroid(n)小行星

Their plan is to kill everybody, house by house and car by car, crushing people to bits with their giant machines. They take one city at a time, and the only escape is to run. The movie is rated PG-13, so young boys can rejoice：it's a perfect movie to see with your dad.
