Listen "Hate to Interrupt - EP 048 | Birdman & War of the worlds (2025)"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Hate to Interrupt, we dive into two films at opposite ends of the spectrum. First up is Alejandro González Iñárritu’s Birdman, the surreal, one-take exploration of ego, artistry, and legacy that helped redefine what “prestige cinema” could look like in the 2010s. Then, we turn our attention to the brand-new War of the Worlds starring Ice Cube — a film so disastrously bad it’s already sitting at a 4% on Rotten Tomatoes. We break down why Birdman continues to inspire admiration while Cube’s War of the Worlds feels like a baffling misfire, and what these extremes say about the range of modern filmmaking.VHSGuyStopCultureGhoulif
