About this episode

The episode reviews the 2005 adaptation of War of the Worlds, exploring its themes and context.

Aliens continue to be real on our journey through three very distinct War of the Worlds adaptations. This week it's the second collaboration between Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise after Minority Report, War of the Worlds 2005.
