Description

You've seen it a hundred times before in a hundred different movies – aliens arrive on Earth, humans fight back, a hero saves the day – and now, in 2025, that hero is the desk-bound tech genius William Radford. War of the Worlds is an Amazon original movie, directed by Rich Lee and starring Ice Cube and Eva Longoria. An adaptation of HG Wells' novel, it follows a Homeland Security analyst battling aliens via his computer while protecting his family.

We explore its notorious reputation as the year's worst film, its unintentional humour, and comparisons to other adaptations like the 2005 Tom Cruise version and a BBC miniseries.
