This movie could have been an email.
-
It could have been a pop-up ad.
-
This movie should have stayed a trailer

This is my favorite critic's review on Rotten Tomatoes.
-
I mean they got ice cube, I can’t imagine them wanting to make a good movie.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.

I saw the Pitch Meeting for this that gave away the entire story. It was just so bad.

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 did, I was openly laughing about how the plot contradicted itself and all the Amazon product placement.
I only made it about 20-30 minutes in. It was so terrible.
Surely it can't be worse than Borderlands to name a recent piece of rubbish I saw, currently sat at 10% on rotten tomatoes
oh borderlands was a masterpiece compared to this.
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.
