The Ice Cube starrer War of the Worlds has been named the worst picture of 2025 by voters of the 46th Razzie Awards.

The movie “won” five of the six categories in which it was nominated, including worst actor (Ice Cube); worst prequel, remake, rip-off or sequel; worst director (Rich Lee); and worst screenplay (Kenny Golde, Marc Hyman).

The movie became “a cult hate-watch classic almost immediately,” the Razzies said. “War of the Worlds (the 2025 version) has been cemented in Razzie history as a near sweeper of our $4.97 trophy winner.”

Organizers went on to say: “Utterly destroying H.G. Wells’ classic novel, director Rich Lee (maybe inspired by Ed Wood) chose a goofy gimmick, hack dialogue and a particularly hilarious performance by its lead, Ice Cube, to seize 2025’s biggest number of statues.”
