Popular rapper and Hollywood actor 50 Cent has mocked Ice Cube’s poorly reviewed remake of “War of the Worlds.” Recall that Cube featured in a new version of the classic sci-fi story, a project that has been absolutely destroyed by critics and viewers.
The movie currently sits at 0% on Rotten Tomatoes, meaning not a single professional critic has given it a positive review.
50 Cent, as usual, quickly joined the already long list of critics, despite the fact that he has not even watched the movie.
Reacting via his Instagram page, he wrote, “0 % how you get a 0 percent rating. Nah somebody mad at cube. Now I’m scared to watch it LOL.”

The classic story, originally based on HG Wells’ 1898 novel of the same name, saw Ice Cube feature as a top cyber-security analyst for Homeland Security, who spends his days monitoring potential threats to national security via a mass surveillance program, until an attack by an unknown entity forced him to question whether the government is keeping something from him and the rest of the world.
The twist was that the major part of the film was set on computer and phone screens, with the trailer showing most of the action happening from a desk that Ice Cube was sat at.
The rap legend turned actor starred alongside “Desperate Housewives” actress Eva Longoria and The Avengers actor Clark Gregg.
The producer of the movie, Patrick Aiello, reacted via a statement, “The idea was organic. When catastrophes happen today, we experience them through our devices. That insight shaped the storytelling and tech used to create this immersive thriller.
For the first time ever, a studio-scale sci-fi epic has been produced using a format that places audiences inside the action through the lenses of phones, computers, and tablets. It’s a visceral, first-person experience designed for big screens in a language and format that is now natural within our daily lives.”
