A new War of the Worlds movie featuring Ice Cube is being hailed as one of the worst movies ever made. As of this writing, the film has a 0% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes after 21 reviews.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, the new War of the Worlds movie — which takes place entirely through the perspective of a computer screen — began to come to fruition in the year 2020, with Ice Cube and Eva Longoria joining the project. Five years later, Universal Pictures tried to quietly dump the film on Amazon Prime Video.
The movie is so bad, however, that it’s been discovered and has gone viral all the same, with movie fans simply having to check it out due to its “so bad it’s good” status.

Clips of the pitiful acting, janky editing and hilariously poor special effects have been going viral on social media since the movie was released on Prime Video on July 30.

In addition to Ice Cube and Eva Longoria, the disastrous War of the Worlds film also stars Clark Gregg, Andrea Savage, Henry Hunter Hall, Iman Benson, Devon Bostick, and Michael O’Neill.
If you want to watch a proper War of the Worlds adaptation, Steve Spielberg’s 2005 film with Tom Cruise, Dakota Fanning and Tim Robbins is now streaming on Pluto TV on Paramount+.
