I saw the Pitch Meeting for this that gave away the entire story. It was just so bad.
I mean they got ice cube, I can’t imagine them wanting to make a good movie.
Shame. The original story is a classic (deservedly so) and has SO MUCH potential.
That seems to be the story with 90% of Amazon’s content attempts. Technically it may have been Universal Studios, but let’s be honest, it’s clear Amazon was in charge given the intense product placement embedded in the screenplay.
What’s the original story? This isn’t war of the worlds the invasion at least from the description I’ve read seems to just be using the same title.
It was so fucking bad. Me and the wife shut it off half way through.
How did you get that far? The wife and I lasted about 5 minutes.
Well we didn’t realize it was going to be him sitting in the chair with that annoying UI the entire movie. We kept being like “OH HES GONNA GET UP” or “OH HIS DAUGHTER IS DYING OUTSIDE HE HAS TO GET UP AND SAVE HER” and then he got up and we were like “OH SHIT THE MOVIE IS GONNA START” but he was locked in the room and he went and sat back down. It was funny but horrible too.
Ah fuck… I’m going to watch this later… I’m in for a great time it seems.
It’s just boring man. I mean watch it for as much as you can get into it for. But don’t expect a hilariously bad movie that ends up being fun because of how bad it is.
Decided to watch Jurassic World Rebirth and I’m struggling to finish it.
It was terrible.
Movie? Bruh it was a 95 minute long Amazon ad
Because it’s shit, that’s why, and yes, I watched it.
me to. I even made a warning post because of how bad it was. Did you make it to the end?
I only made it about 20-30 minutes in. It was so terrible.
23 minutes for me and I paused, clicked ahead five times to see if it was exactly the same the whole way, and boy howdy it was and it was all bad.
That’s how long my wife and I made it into “A Family Affair” with Zach Effron and Nicole Kidman. Gave it a try but holy cow was it bad. And we typically don’t turn off movies or leave shows.
I did, I was openly laughing about how the plot contradicted itself and all the Amazon product placement.
It’s being advertised on Prime Video as the #2 top watched movie right now. I just laughed lol they’re rankings are a total joke
Maybe it is the second most watched movie…you’re all here talking about it, after all.
Surely it can’t be worse than Borderlands to name a recent piece of rubbish I saw, currently sat at 10% on rotten tomatoes
Borderlands is Oscar material compared to this thing. I watched it thinking it couldn’t be that bad and it was worse than I thought an amateur movie could be.
There is apparently an action scene in which ice cube needs a thumb drive, so orders one via Amazon drone delivery. The drone goes down in all the chaos, and our characters have to barter with the homeless man who found the downed drone by offering him Amazon gift cards. The man is a conspiracy nut who thinks the government is tracking him, but a $1000 Amazon gift cards convinces him to risk his life for the characters.
So yes, it is worse than Borderlands.
Your description is hilarious, but I’m guessing actually watching it is much less so.
I’ve seen the thumbdrive/buying from Amazon sequence on Instagram. I’m going to have to watch the full scene now for myself on Prime.
So glad I didn’t watch this, I was fairly interested from the trailer.
Is it at least entertaining from a bad movie perspective? Or is it the worst of all worlds and also consistently boring?
If it’s a ridiculous trainwreck I might see if I can find a source for bad movie night
oh borderlands was a masterpiece compared to this.
This movie could have been an email.
It could have been a pop-up ad.
It is a pop-up ad. Just movie length.
This movie should have stayed a trailer
This is my favorite critic’s review on Rotten Tomatoes.
I didn’t even know this movie existed until a couple of days ago when it hit digital release. Then I wondered how a War of The Worlds movie can possibly fly under my radar. Then I saw it was Ice Cube, and that made me go hmm for sure. THEN I saw the ratings.
I had not heard of this either, but what is it about Ice Cube? I haven’t seen him in a movie in a long time, Friday era, I don’t remember him being bad in that (or earlier films), no good now?
I didn’t even know this movie existed until I entered this thread.
But it isn’t a war of the worlds movie. Just shares a name. Or the the description of the movie is o bad. Isn’t he looking for his daughter.
I wonder if the episode of The Studio featuring Ice Cube was self-aware commentary on this movie. In that episode he stars in a Kool-Aid movie.
Lol is this the movie that Linus Sebastian got cut from? They did him a favour.
Right click > Commandeer Drone
Is this referencing a game in particular or just a General game thing
The shitty War of the Worlds reboot
Well, as you can tell, I haven’t seen it, thank you by the way
