War Of The Worlds (2025): It's So Much Worse Than You Think

This week, Ben and Rob suffer through War of the Worlds (2025), a baffling “screen life” style disaster starring Ice Cube and directed by Rich Lee. It’s a modern retelling of the classic H.G. Wells War Of The Worlds; except instead of tension, thrills, or coherence, we get glitchy video calls, insane leaps of logic, and a lead performance that suggests Ice Cube might secretly be a sociopath.Is War of the Worlds the first alien invasion film to be completely derailed by Zoom windows? Why should director Rich Lee escape this mess blameless, and how did Ice Cube get away with whatever it is he’s doing here? And the big one: is this the worst sci-fi movie of the decade? Or in the right context, the most fun you could ever have watching an advert for Amazon?The lads pick apart the wreckage of War of the Worlds (2025), searching for meaning, entertainment, or even a single reason it exists. Spoiler: they don’t find one.CONSUUUME to find out all this and much MUCH more!PLUS!
