Movies War of the Worlds Staring Ice Cube

Wasted 2 hours of life on this steaming pile of horse shit.
NSA tech geniuses don’t talk like jive turkey Ice Cube (who I generally like). This was incredibly distracting, and pretty much everything about this was embarrassingly terrible.
 
Ice Cube plays a surveillance and threat assessment expert for DHS. While talking and shouting like his character from Friday and Boyz in The Hood lmao. This is a 10 minutes in and turn it off movie.
 
I posted this review in a different thread so I'll post it here too


I watched it a couple nights ago, Its kinda like Cloverfield but instead of a camcorder, the whole entire movie takes place on United States government surveillance cameras placed all over the world

Its not good but darned if I wasnt entertained by its cheesy cheap B movie sci fi crappyness, the story kept me hooked til the end

For the Why Files fans in here, its basically one of those AI animated dark dystopian fantasy episodes that AJ was putting out there for a little bit, and thats what kept me hooked, the monsters werent scary but seeing all this government surveillance technology in action was scary as heck! :oops:


Also, its really heavy on the Amazon services and product placement, they literally save the world by placing an Amazon order <lol>


Its not a good movie but its free on Amazon Prime Video so if youre in the mood for some cheap dumb mindless sci fi thrills then maybe give it a spin

Its so cheap that they literally used a picture of gangster Ice Cube from his NWA days in the family photos montage <lol>


I dont even know what to rate it, frickin 2.7 Thumbs Up Outta 7 based on quality but 4.0 Thumbs Up based on keeping ole Pete easily entertained
 
If anyone was wondering, this is the picture of Ice Cube that they used in the movie, this young rapscallion grew up to become the United States governments #1 worldwide surveillance expert, started out as a young thug and grew up to be truly evil...

Nice when are we getting a Boyz n da good remake with Ryan goselin and Zach galifinkakis as dough boy?

We also need a reboot of menace II society with Tom holland and Timothy chalamet
 
Hopefully he destroys an alien and says

i cant imagine anyone that has a life would waste time watching it.
deleted it after 5 minutes. abysmal trash.
 
tha aliens were addicted to data. LOL this movie is a steaming pile of shit holy fuck. im mad i wasted time watching the entire thing
 
I can't stand movies that do stuff like this. There was another movie with a similar concept with John Cho called Searching. It was about his daughter missing and using PCs/social media to track her and where she might have went. Overall concept was great and they movie could have been good if it was just a regular movie but they ruined it with a similar gimmick to this.

Shame cause I love the Tom Cruise movie so was hoping for something at least on that level even slightly lower would have been ok. Oh well the Cruise movie still holds up and I rewatch it every now and then.
 
Being that ‘data’ is their food you’d think some of the porn out there would be enough for the aliens to say ‘nope’


Also I’m pretty sure Godzilla wouldn’t put up with this shit
 
The preview in the Amazon app on my TV just looked like a commercial for Teams starring Ice Cube.

I'm guessing in the sequel they come back with more force but now he has copilot.

Again, this is based on the one minute thing that auto played in the app. It did the opposite of make me want to watch it.
 
I love the 1953 version. Couldn't believe how it looked for that age.
 
''It's worse than you think''

That's what I was thinking.
