What does it take to get a 0% on Rotten Tomatoes? I watched 'War of the Worlds' to find out.
Ice Cube stars in a modern adaptation of the alien invasion story, which the internet turned into a meme. I wasn't planning on watching the straight-to-Prime-Video remake of War of the Worlds set entirely on the computer screen of a government security analyst until I saw footage of Ice Cube screaming at a young man via video call as he shakily records an alien invasion. It's so bad, it demands to be seen. The new movie, released July 30, debuted with a rare 0% on Rotten Tomatoes, meaning that it had been panned by all of the critics who took the time to watch and review it. (It has since been elevated to 3% as of press time, thanks to a contrarian review from Entertainment Weekly.) Scoring in the single digits for any amount of time is not an easy feat on the review aggregation website, which considers critics of varying levels of prestige in its 'Tomatometer' scores. Without such widespread disdain, 2025's War of the Worlds might have been forgotten — slipping into the depths of Prime Video's expansive catalogue. Instead, it became a lightning rod on social media. There's something magical about a movie that tried to be good and ended up being bad in so many ways that thousands of people still took the time to investigate the extent of its failure. I myself was intrigued by the widespread condemnation of what seemed to be a real movie with a budget and familiar actors — surely, it can't be that bad! — so, for 89 unhinged minutes, I sat down on my couch and watched it for myself. So, what happens in this movie? Ice Cube stars as William Radford, a grizzly 'domestic terror analyst' who spends his days stalking his pregnant biologist daughter, Faith (Iman Benson), and underperforming video game streamer son, Dave (Henry Hunter Hall). As an employee of the Department of Homeland Security, he has access to seemingly every camera and technology in the Washington, D.C., area — he hacks his daughter's fridge to monitor what she consumes (too much soy milk, apparently) and frequently right-clicks on flashing targets on his computer to select a menu option that says 'Commandeer Drone.' Luckily, William was just starting his workday as aliens invaded, though he frequently declines calls from 'Sandra NASA' (Eva Longoria) and ignores Microsoft Teams messages from his DHS boss (Clark Gregg) in favor of yelling at his son for buying new video games and hacking his daughter's computer to see what her baby daddy, Mark (Devon Bostick), an Amazon delivery driver, is telling her about their upcoming shower that William is not invited to. I know that the goal of this movie is to show how, in the 2020s, the response to an alien invasion would be mostly online. Unlike the 2005 film adaptation starring Tom Cruise and Dakota Fanning, we wouldn't be fighting invaders on the ground as much as we'd be watching clips of the chaos unfold on X and Instagram. I did wonder, though, how aliens who initiated their invasion of Earth by blowing up NASA satellites so they couldn't be surveilled and immediately began destroying data centers as soon as they landed left our internet intact. The world may be ending as we know it, but because Microsoft Teams and Google Sheets were still operating, some people still had to work. Ridiculous alien movie logic aside, the fact that 2025's War of the Worlds anticipates that the apocalypse will be somewhat mundane feels appropriate for our dystopian times. Unfortunately for this movie, any new take on War of the Worlds — and there have been dozens since H.G. Wells's original novel was published in 1898 — would have to stand in the shadow of the most interesting adaptation: the 1938 radio drama that sparked nationwide hysteria after being misinterpreted as a real broadcast of an invasion. By standing out — though it's for being absurd, poorly acted and ridiculously edited — the 2025 version has accomplished something amazing. Is it actually bad? While watching the film, I made a list of the dialogue and plot points that made me laugh out loud. Here are a few: As the star of a movie about a guy sitting at his computer, I don't envy the work Ice Cube has to do here. God forbid a camera ever record my looking-at-my-laptop face, let alone amid an alien invasion. There are so many references to Amazon made throughout the film, it might as well be an ad. So bad it's good My list only scratches the surface of the chaos. To take a moment to jot down something that made me laugh meant tearing my eyes away from the screen, where ridiculous things were happening in such rapid succession that even three seconds of dwindling attention meant I might miss an editing failure or a bizarrely worded Teams message. Even though I was on my couch reading posts about it online, my viewing experience was less like watching a movie and more like attending an event. I'm grateful for the social media dogpile that inspired me to watch War of the Worlds in the first place, but because of the way social platforms seem to reward negative opinions, scoring a 0% on Rotten Tomatoes might not be a rare feat for much longer. Dan Green, director of the Master of Entertainment Industry Management program at Carnegie Mellon University, tells Yahoo that the collective panning of the film reveals how audience review websites like Rotten Tomatoes 'have been transformed into a competitive exercise in disdain, reflecting a gamified culture of online critique.' In other words, watching movies and making fun of them on social media and review sites now feels like a community activity. For a moment, people were so united by the intrigue of a 0% score that War of the Worlds reached the No. 2 spot on Prime Video's U.S. movie rankings. It's now part of Rotten Tomatoes' unofficial Hall of Shame, among the few dozen widely reviewed and panned films of all time, like 2018's Gotti starring John Travolta and 2014's Left Behind starring Nicolas Cage. After the fun I had watching this one, I think I'll make my way through the list.

Prime Video's new spy thriller series is packed with action and twists — your next binge-watch is here
The first episode of Prime Video's spy thriller series 'Butterfly' opens with a pair of interconnected action sequences that drop viewers right into its world of deadly clandestine operations. I was immediately reminded of one of my favorite spy shows, 'Alias,' while watching secret agent Rebecca Jung (Reina Hardesty) wearing an eye-catching wig and a fake pregnancy belly as she carries out the assassination of a high-level Russian official who's in Seoul for a diplomatic meeting. 'Butterfly' recalls 'Alias' in another key way, as Rebecca teams up with her father David (Daniel Dae Kim), a fellow spy who unexpectedly comes back into her life after years away. Based loosely on comic books created by Arash Amel, 'Butterfly' is fast-paced and fun, without the heavy, drawn-out plotting of a prestige drama or the unwieldy efforts at world-building that doomed Prime Video's would-be espionage franchise 'Citadel.' Show creators Steph Cha and Ken Woodruff deliver consistent action, plot twists and interpersonal drama within six lively episodes. While Rebecca is carrying out her mission at the beginning of that first episode, David is carrying out a mission of his own, just across town at a karaoke lounge. He infiltrates Rebecca's crew and intercepts her escape route, with the goal of extricating her from Caddis, the private covert agency where she works for ruthless boss Juno Lund (Piper Perabo). As far as Rebecca knows, David was killed in action nine years earlier, but he actually faked his death in order to save Rebecca from being targeted by his enemies. At least that's what he tells both Rebecca and himself, but she doesn't entirely buy it, and maybe he doesn't, either, since he's determined to make amends for the years he missed. Watching Rebecca develop into an efficient, cold-blooded assassin has made him regret leaving her in Juno's hands, and he wants to give her the chance at a normal life. There's nothing new about a spy who wants to leave the profession behind but is held back by larger forces, and 'Butterfly' doesn't reinvent the formula. The execution is what counts, though, and the creators find clever ways to keep up the conflict between David and Juno, who is furious when she learns that her former business partner is still alive and is attempting to steal her best agent. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. The characters travel across South Korea, with plenty of car chases and shootouts along the way, waging a battle that is as personal as it is professional. Juno has her own family member to consider, since her son Oliver (Louis Landau) is also a Caddis employee, although he's just an ineffectual analyst who constantly fails to live up to his mother's expectations. His insistence on going into the field leads to disastrous consequences, and both David and Juno make risky decisions in order to protect their children. David now also has a new wife to consider, and she has her own shady family connections, which come into play in the second half of the season and provide fodder for potential future developments. After the exciting and intricate action of the first episode, 'Butterfly' slows down a bit, in part so that David and Rebecca can get reacquainted, and Kim and Hardesty have strong chemistry, both as wary spies and as estranged family members. They bond over both cooking and surveillance, and they treat each other as professional equals, even though that means they can never truly trust each other. Juno and Oliver have a friendlier but less respectful relationship, as she expects him to simply follow her orders because she knows what's best. Perabo, who spent five seasons as the star of another globe-trotting spy thriller, the 2010s USA series 'Covert Affairs,' never makes Juno into a sadistic, one-dimensional villain, although she's clearly amoral and greedy. These two sets of parents and children make for worthy adversaries because they're driven by similar, complementary motivations. The character development is mostly satisfying, but what makes 'Butterfly' worth watching is the kinetic action, and the show is rarely far from another impressive sequence. Highlights include a car/motorcycle chase along sidewalks filled with pedestrians, and a close-quarters fight inside a cramped kitchen. Kim Ji-hoon plays an assassin known as Gun, who fills the role of the purely nasty villain, as he's hired to do Juno's dirty work. He gets some of the show's best action moments, but Kim and Hardesty easily hold their own as well. While there's nothing groundbreaking about 'Butterfly,' that's part of what makes it so refreshing. It wouldn't have been entirely out of place on ABC alongside 'Alias' or on USA alongside 'Covert Affairs.' It's a bit grittier than those shows, but it captures the same sense of adventure and intrigue, and that's enough to keep the audience coming back for the next episode. All six episodes of the first season of 'Butterfly' are streaming now on Prime Video.

Teens arrested for Brad Pitt burglary targeted other stars, say LA police
Four teenagers have been arrested over a burglary that left actor Brad Pitt's home ransacked, police said. The suspects are allegedly behind a number of "celebrity burglaries" that targeted the houses of actors and professional athletes, Los Angeles Police Chief Jim McDonnell said. He said the male suspects, two 18-year-olds, a 17-year-old and a 16-year-old, are street gang members, and property stolen in the burglaries was found when police searched their homes. Police did not name those whose properties were targeted, but celebrities including Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, LA Dodgers pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto and ex-LA Football Club striker Olivier Giroud have reported break-ins this year. The investigation started in late June after Pitt's home was raided by a trio of masked thieves. McDonnell said the group hopped a perimeter fence surrounding the Los Feliz home and shattered a window, hopping inside and taking items before fleeing. Police did not confirm the home belonged to the Oscar-winning actor, but the address matched that of a property Pitt bought in 2023. The large three-bedroom house sits just outside Griffith Park, where the famous Hollywood Sign sits. It is surrounded by a fence and greenery that shields the property from public view. Pitt was not home at the time of the burglary and was promoting his new film, F1. The BBC has contacted representatives for the actor. McDonnell said investigators found the suspects were part of a crew that "were burglarizing various high-profile residents throughout the city", which he said included homes of "actors and professional athletes". Last week, authorities followed the four suspects and were able to arrest them on burglary charges, he added. Police did not elaborate on what items were recovered after police searched their homes. McDonnell said burglars like this group had become increasingly smart in their crimes - planting surveillance cameras in nearby flowerbeds or across the street from homes they target to monitor a victim's routine. He said thieves had also been using wi-fi jammers to knock out home surveillance systems and cameras that could alert homeowners or police of a break-in. He noted that celebrities and athletes can be easier targets since their appearances and games are publicised online. He noted, though, that anyone posting on social media about their travels can unknowingly be alerting a potential thief to their location. "We don't really give enough thought to... [while] we want our friends to know where we are and what we're doing, you're telling everybody else then who may be looking to exploit your situation," McDonnell said.
