The rest of the story is roughly similar to the film adaptation, which was directed by Steven Spielberg in 2005 and starred Tom Cruise in the lead role: giant alien robot monsters that aim to subjugate the Earth. We watch a committed Ice Cube as he hears the following words from the White House: "To save us all, I see no other option than to start the war of the worlds." Incidentally, it's funny when our main character brings Fox News and other TV news channels onto the screen in between: When they report that the president is about to be briefed, you have to believe that the TV viewer knows more than the most powerful man in the world.
