I'm not being dramatic when I say this is the worst movie I've ever seen. And I've seen a lot of terrible movies - Birdemic, The Room, Velocipastor - all of them at least had some charm.

This has none. This film doesn't even qualify as a film. It's not art. It's not storytelling. It's a 90-minute Amazon commercial dressed up as a sci-fi thriller, with the emotional depth of a CAPTCHA test and the visuals of a broken PS1 emulator.

Plot? Barely... Imagine an AI was told: "Write a movie about aliens, hacking, family drama, and also make it an ad for Amazon." And the AI immediately fried its circuits from how stupid the request was - but someone still greenlit the result.

Ice Cube plays a government surveillance expert who can hack literally everything - your phone, your toaster, your unborn child's pacemaker. He spies on his family 24/7 and is somehow shocked when they don't like him. Then aliens invade - but not to enslave or conquer humanity. No. They want our data. Yes, really. They eat data. They're like cosmic TikTok users with tentacles.

The CGI is absolutely vile. It looks like it was rendered on a school laptop using stolen stock assets and duct tape. The aliens look like untextured Sonic the Hedgehog prototypes. The explosions have zero weight. The entire second half is green-screened chaos with the visual fidelity of a 1997 cutscene.

Acting? There is none... Nobody acts. They read lines like they were forced at gunpoint. Ice Cube puts in less effort than someone recording a voicemail. There's a scene where a news reporter says, completely deadpan, "That meteor just hit my son's school. He's dead." Then it cuts to the next scene like nothing happened.

Logic? Absolutely obliterated.

Let's be clear: this movie has no internal logic. Ice Cube can hack literally anything by typing stuff like "trace IP pls" and instantly gets GPS coordinates.

The aliens disable all military tech by draining data - yet drones, bombers, Zoom, FaceTime, YouTube, and Amazon Prime Air all work flawlessly afterward.

Facebook gets deleted. Yes, literally deleted. Like "404 not found, goodbye grandma."

The plan to defeat the aliens? Upload a virus called Cannibal Code via a USB stick flown in by an Amazon Prime drone. Delivered by a guy named Mark - who gives an in-movie speech about how cool Prime Air is.

A random dude flips over the drone mid-battlefield in exchange for a $1000 Amazon gift card. I'm not joking.

The movie tries to end with some profound message about privacy and surveillance. Which is laughable, considering it spends 90 minutes showing how awesome mass surveillance is - as long as Amazon does it. Ice Cube ends the movie by saying he'll "watch the government now," as if that makes up for the literal digital dictatorship he operated the entire time.

This is not a movie. This is a soulless, AI-written, brain-dead ad for Amazon that spits in the face of every single person who's ever made a real film.

The writing is garbage. The pacing is insane. The characters are robots. The plot is beyond idiotic. The dialogue sounds like it was written by a 13-year-old trying to sound cool on Reddit. It's not "so bad it's good." It's just bad.

Bottom of the barrel streaming trash.

Not fun, not clever, not ironic. Just corporate vomit.

Watch only if you want to study what happens when capitalism kills creativity...
