War of the Worlds' may have a zero-percent Rotten Tomatoes score, but it's secured itself a place in Amazon's top streaming charts.

The movie has been universally panned by critics as a poor adaptation of the original novel and a feature-length advertisement for Amazon.

The action is limited to glitchy video clips and whatever else might appear on a surveillance expert's screen in a cheap-looking thriller that suggests Amazon Prime as Earth's one-stop solution.
