People Are Trying To Survive Underground During The Invasion Of An ALIEN CIVILIZATION [movie recap] 

Movie recap: War of the Worlds: The Attack (2023)

"The creature in the bushes turns out to be a blood-thirsty monster: British Artillery soldier Ben." Instant sub

The soldiers: Yes! We killed it! The world is safe!!! Other tripods in the distance: *allow us to introduce ourselves*

High tech jets and missiles are useless , but a grenade takes them out ….

This really is a near-exact retelling of the original novel "War of the Worlds", and like with that, Ben informs them that the military has been completely exterminated in mere *days* at most; they could only put up a measily few days combat before they were completely eradicated in the course of the battle. In short, their entire nation's collapsed completely, any government officers who have survived have committed cowardice; those that fulfilled their duty are long-dead, or simply eaten by the Martians; and the ones who resist the aliens will inevitably meet the same fate... they have never had any chance from the start.

Wait, so these tripods don't have magic force fields yet they still roll over a modern military? How?

"We have war of the worlds 2005 at home" War of the worlds 2005 at home:

Let us all be honest, The Original is the absolute best but this ain't to bad, Atleast it had them actually be Martians and octopus type, Take place in Britain, And have a Character called Ogilvy, And overall plot is very similar to the book it is just I REALLY do prefer the old Victorian setting and I don't mind a 1913 or 1938 setting, Just you know these old times, Though the fact the black kid (Dont remember his name) can mention the Tim Burton Movie Mars Attacks but not the War of the Worlds is somewhat of a crime

**astronomer opens door** Alien: Tf bro im dressing up

i like the minor humor while keeping the recaps professional lmao

it's a pretty good film, if you don't compare it with Spielberg's version.

Dude your recaps are hilarious. You have to remind people to like and subscribe cause it’s easy to forget and your videos are great. Thanks for the hard work. I appreciate it

'A distant relative of Cthulhu and Dr Zoidberg'-wonderful-you have a great future ahead of you.

It's good to see that H.G. Wells' classic SF story is still inspiring folk to adapt it. Without seeing the whole thing, I don't know the details, but in the main, this one looks at least half decent. OK, so it doesn't follow the actual story very closely, but then, it has been modernised. The protagonist in Wells' original tale has been replaced by three students, you still have the doctor, the religious man ( a curate in the book) and a military man ( who suffered a deep inferiority complex when he saw what was happening). Yet, the ships, tripods and red weed come from Mars, the Martians are octopus like, and perhaps best of all, having brought at least London, if not the world, to its knees, the Martians die from all the various bacteria, viruses and other pathogens that fill our planet alongside us... with strong hints that, given time, the Martians might be able to adapt to them! A film doesn't have to be a big budget blockbuster to be good- think 'Monsters'. Don't get me wrong, because I loved Spielberg's adaptation,, but some adaptations work better than others. The latest offering from the BBC had good creatures and special effects, but made some awful errors. Whilst placing it in its period setting (the Victorian era) it tried to 'update' things by turning the protagonist into an unmarried mother, and getting all moralistic on certain topics, which wouldn't have been seen as an issue then. The result was stodgy and mostly unappealing even to die hard SF fans. There was another adaptation that came out just afterward, but whilst I've heard about it, I haven't seen it or heard very much about it, so wonder how well it did. This adaptation, however, seems to have taken the basic elements of the story and filled the rest in with its own ideas. It looks like it didn't go overboard trying to add anything extra, and though set in a modern day, didn't try to add on modern moral values, at least that I can see. They say less is more, and in this instance, it seems they got it just about right!

well atleast the 05 version made sence for why the military couldnt fight back. This one appeared to have no shields and were weak enough to be taken down by a hand grenade. why the couldn't the military take them down with ease.

When you look at it, this is actually the most accurate representation of War of the Worlds set in modern day London.

Didn't Orson Wells scare the daylights out of everyone with the "War of The Worlds" radio broadcast on Halloween once?😊

ah yes I remember when the British army had T-90A tanks in its military 4:33

0:05 Its not a good look when the helpless civilians in your movie look like they're going on a leisurely jog.

seeing how accurate this is to the book it gives me enthusiasm

"it appears to be a blood thirsty monster, british artillery soldier ben." mf got me laughin' 😂

I'd like to see a movie version of The Great Martian War, 1913-1917.

Aliens caught covid, too. 😂

Nice little easter eggs there; Ogilvy, Herbert, using the actual Horshall Common, the mental pastor, the Artilleryman etc etc. But yet ANOTHER War of the Worlds ignoring the most BADASS scene in the book: HMS Thunderchild taking down three Tripods

I am glad that the Crazy Priest got what came for him: Death.

This was so cinematic and well made, I just wish the VFX/CGI was more realistic. Ngl it kinda looks like something I could do if I had the time lololol

After all that time, i still ask myself, why have they never tried to make the Machines stumble?! they got 3 Legs, and are definitely not capable of walking on 2 Legs alone... And why have they never considered Mines, if they can blow them up from "inside their Shields"?

"Offended by the small caliber" I almost spit out lauging. Great one.

“Straddled on their precious pedal machines, the astronomers head into town.” What? 🤣

A story how Nurgle saved Earth from an alien invasion

Your narration is TOP NOTCH!!

"Sir, these walking giant squid-looking machines are vulnerable to our weapons." "Well that's not fair to the story... quick! Charge right at them instead of using range to our advantage!!!"

when the hell did War Of the Worlds get a sequel.

Man this was too funny I loved this! Thank you!

Tbh after the 2005 war of the worlds every future adaptation of war of the worlds was based around the 2005 version and not really the original novel (except 1 movie but that one is hard to even find and has barely been archived)

Ok...I love all the comedy ad-libs you do while summarizing the movie lol

4:45 the tanks shown are literally T-72s 💀

Yooo another tripod les gooooo. Reminds me of the tripod from 2005 (These goobers traumatize me but i love them still)

Nobody: ChatGPT, rephrase "Riding their bikes" but make it 100x more pretentious Narrator: "Saddled on their precious pedal machines"

Bro really called it DR. Zoidberg

"Offended by the small caliber" 💀

The way the alien vaporize the victims look more scary than the 2005 movie

You have my Subscribe and thumb-up for very colorful additions in recap.

Military Alliance vs The Imperial Alien Empire Forces

Mum can we have war of the worlds? No we have war of the worlds at home. War of the worlds at home:

"Mom their back again -_-" Mom: "WDYM THEIR BACK????

THX FOR THE RECAP! i needed spoilers

1:56 how they just stand there, like they see this everyday LOL

i love the sarcasm

The British tank is the challenger tank not the t-90.

Respect dropping Morlocks near Mk 8:00 Nice One

Me: chilling Alien ships: lands and starts to invade Me: we come in peace welcome to our planet

"He finds a whole bunch of nothing in the woods" 😂

Every aliens sci-fi movies: An strange object came from galaxy came down to earth

2:30 I find it really weird how the visual effects are extremely amateur in one shot but then incredibly well done in the next

that was a quick defeat

Is this on amazon prime or Netflix please let me know

Why did they not include the HMS Thunderchild (in the sense of a scene with a ship valiantly fighting against the tripods)

Fun fact: your actually talking about the Rip off war of the worlds 2005

4:34 Martian tripod business XD

"He finds a whole bunch of nothing in the woods" :)))

Precious pedal machines. Heh. That's one way to call a bicycle.

4:30 martian tripod business🤣🤣

Still cannot beat, 2005.

that one tripod that got shot by the artillery man and blown up:HEY MAN IM OFFENDED NOW.

you can't really have an invasion from mars set in the 21st century, pretending that we don't know what's on mars and haven't landed multiple missions on it.

the ending in which theres an egg that survived. means that one of the eggs had a mutation in the genes, which means they can repel the bacteria they must not let it reproduce otherwise there will be no stopping them

Handsome alien tripod

Dr Zoidberg !!😂😂

You should be the most famous RU-vidr

I prefer the 2005 version gotta love that matrix sentinel tripod

War of the world Walmart version

I refuse to believe that the humans would still lose having nukes available, it's pretty hard to believe that humans would lose against aliens considering modern technology

I wonder what an asgard beam weapon from stargate sg-1 woud to to those bugs

Another example for the ,,How Aliens see the earth"-meme

Although the movie wasn't the best, im glad it kept the og book in mind and mostly faithfully followed it even if the thunderchild scene was kinda goofy lol

“Cathulu and Dr. Zoidberg”

How many times is this movie going to be made?

“Pedel machine” (bike)

A full, GRENADE. Can kill a tripod.

How to destroy aliens:BACTERIA It's not "beam of fire",it's heat ray!the only weapon (except black smoke) WHERE IS THUNDER CHILD? "Red grass" is red weed

Wow war of the world's came back

You really do see the dilemma for filmakers nowadays making these alien invasion movies.....while even low budget flicks can put out impressive special effects such as this movie...and they are very good hats off to the CGI team on this movie...where you can see the problem is with....people. they just dont have the budget to have lots of people milling around such as would happen in an invasion and the streets seem sterile despite the invasion which just sort of takes away from the movie somehow. still, they did a great job.

Looks like a Big Fin Squid!

Bro they need a tank that can oof a 1000 houses

Isn’t this just the English version of war of the worlds but more modern but it’s just in London also and yeah basically the only difference is it’s more modern and less vehicle tax because even the old man part is the same

😊taht big robot lock like a tribot

I love war of the worlds BUT this looks a lot simular than war of the worlds but wat movie is this?

do one on the 2005 wotw

hmmm quite similar to the novel version of the war of the worlds and artillery man

bro cuaght me when he said the pries didtn turn the check and proceed with a "hook"

Life...finds a way.

I subscribed because you referenced METRO 2033 7:44

The First Great Martian war : **minecraft cave sound**

Wait there's a second movie?!

This is like war of the worlds part 2

POV: the 2005 tripods didn’t do good enough so they sent in a downgrade to kill them-aka 2005 tripods looked cooler

It’s just a radio, active tripod it’s upgraded from like radioactive Mars

A Jäeger like a Cherna alpha would have been useful

But The Film Studios Turned It Down Saying That It Would Still Be Far Too Expensive To Even Contemplate Trying To Make.
