Ice Cube War of Worlds Film Receives 0% Rotten Tomatoes Score

The 2025 remake of War of the Worlds, starring Ice Cube and directed by Rich Lee, has been met with overwhelmingly negative reviews, receiving a rare 0% score on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics have particularly panned the film's found footage style, direction, and narrative, marking a stark contrast to Lee's previous success directing Eminem's popular Venom music video. Despite the film's poor critical reception, Ice Cube continues to find success outside of acting, notably in his basketball league business ventures. The film's failure places it among a small list of movies from notable actors and directors that have garnered a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. This poor reception highlights the challenges Lee faces transitioning from music video direction to feature films. Meanwhile, other projects like the Outlander prequel have enjoyed critical acclaim, illustrating a diverse spectrum of critical response in recent media releases.
