Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we're breaking down the ways that this 2025 sci-fi adaptation completely loses sight of its source material and of any logic.

歡迎來到 WatchMojo，今天我們將分析這部 2025 年改編的科幻片在哪些方面完全脫離了原著和邏輯。

A Tonal Mismatch H.G. Wells' original 1898 The War of the

色調的錯位 H.G. 威爾斯 1898 年原著的《星球大戰

進階被動語態

Worlds has, for generations, been heralded as one of the great works of science fiction, weaving in nail-biting suspense and thoughtful social commentary, Wells' novel presents a ground-level view of a terrifying alien invasion.

幾代人以來，《世界》一直被譽為最偉大的科幻小說之一，威爾斯的小說將扣人心絃的懸念和深思熟慮的社會評論交織在一起，展現了可怕的外星入侵的真實面貌。

Instead of putting audiences in the shoes of terrified civilians, the New War of the

新戰爭紀元》沒有讓觀眾設身處地地為驚恐萬分的平民著想。

Worlds instead follows a convoluted, ineffective effort by the US government to contain the otherworldly threat.

世界》講述了美國政府為遏制異世界威脅所做的曲折而無效的努力。

The choice to reframe the novel's narrative shows a profound misunderstanding of Wells' novel, contorting it into a noisy, chaotic action-thriller that's neither action-packed nor thrilling.

選擇重構小說的敘事方式，顯示出對威爾斯小說的深刻誤解，將其扭曲成一部喧鬧、混亂的動作驚悚片，既沒有動作性，也不驚心動魄。

Half-Hearted Surveillance Critiques If you want to give The War of the Worlds remake some credit, you could award it some points for taking a stab at cultural relevance.

半心半意的監控責備 如果你想給《世界大戰》翻拍版點贊，你可以給它在文化相關性方面的嘗試點贊。

Unfortunately for the filmmakers, that's about as far as it can be taken.

不幸的是，對於電影製作人來說，這已經是極限了。

The new film stars Ice Cube as Will Radford, who works for the United States Department of Homeland Security, and heads up an almost comically sophisticated, top-secret surveillance program that can track every single person on Earth's every movement.

新片由 Ice Cube 飾演 Will Radford，他在美國國土安全部工作，上司著一個近乎滑稽的絕密監控項目，該項目可以追蹤地球上每一個人的一舉一動。

While War of the Worlds clearly has something on its mind with regard to government overreach, it's not nearly as potent, or even as fleshed out as the original novel's subtle, thoughtful commentary on colonialism and imperialism.

雖然《世界大戰》顯然對政府的過度擴張有所思考，但其力度甚至不如原著小說對殖民主義和帝國主義微妙而深思熟慮的評論。

We could argue that every problem with 2025's War of the Worlds originates from its script.

我們可以說，2025 年《世界大戰》的所有問題都源於它的劇本。

Kenneth A. Gold and Mark Hyman's screenplay already feels like it's ticking off a list of cliches, and the film's interplay between its characters is the clearest example of that.

肯尼斯-A-戈爾德（Kenneth A. Gold）和馬克-海曼（Mark Hyman）的劇本給人的感覺就像是在勾選一個陳詞濫調的清單，而影片中人物之間的互動就是最明顯的例子。

Nearly every line of Rich Lee's film is pure exposition, a mercilessly expedient way to get from plot point A to plot point B in the shortest amount of time possible.

裡奇-李的影片幾乎每一句臺詞都是純粹的闡述，是一種在最短時間內從情節點 A 到達情節點 B 的無情的權宜之計。

We're not saying we expected Citizen Kane, but surely the filmmakers could have thought of something more compelling than having their characters say exactly what they're thinking at all times.

我們並不是說我們期待的是《公民凱恩》，但電影製片人肯定會想出一些比讓角色隨時說出自己的想法更引人入勝的東西。

Let us note that by no means are filmmakers expected to perfectly preserve every beat and plot device from the source material they're adapting.

讓我們注意到，電影製片人絕不應完美地保留他們所改編的原著材料中的每一個節拍和情節設置。

In fact, changing up certain elements while respecting the spirit of the original work is a time-honored way of keeping things fresh for contemporary audiences.

事實上，在尊重原作精神的前提下改變某些元素，是為當代觀眾保持新鮮感的一種歷史悠久的方式。

Unfortunately, the Ice Cube starring War of the Worlds turns Wells' powerful novel into a run-of-the-mill sci-fi extravaganza.

遺憾的是，由冰塊主演的《世界大戰》將威爾斯這部震撼人心的小說變成了一部普通的科幻鉅製。

Where as Wells' Martians die from exposure to earthly pathogens, the 2025 film adaptation has Ice Cube's character and his family join forces to deploy a bio-agent against the attackers, which accomplishes little.

威爾斯筆下的火星人死於接觸地球上的病原體，而在 2025 年改編的電影中，冰立方扮演的角色和他的家人聯手部署了一種生物製劑來對付襲擊者，但收效甚微。

Instead, focus is placed on the aliens' hunger for data, and the film doesn't even clarify how their mission was thwarted.

相反，影片將重點放在了外星人對數據的渴望上，甚至沒有說明他們的任務是如何被挫敗的。

The emotional beats of the new War of the Worlds aren't totally off.

新版《世界大戰》的情感節拍並沒有完全偏離。

It should be noted that Wells' original novel does prominently feature its unnamed protagonist's efforts to return to his wife amidst a terrifying alien invasion.

應該指出的是，威爾斯的原著小說確實突出地描寫了不知名的主角在可怕的外星入侵中努力回到妻子身邊的故事。

However, that's about where the similarities end.

The 2025 film spends far too long on clumsily setting up the turmoil affecting Will Radford's family.

2025 年的影片花了太多的時間，笨拙地為影響威爾-拉德福德家庭的動亂做鋪墊。

Radford, still reeling from the death of his wife sometime earlier, is overprotective of his son and pregnant daughter, who have both distanced themselves from him.

拉德福德還沉浸在妻子去世的悲痛中，對兒子和懷孕的女兒過度保護，兩人都與他疏遠。

This is supposed to form the film's emotional core, but is so painfully shoehorned in that audiences will find themselves begging for more explosions.

這本應是影片的情感核心，但卻被塞得如此痛苦，以至於觀眾會發現自己在乞求更多的爆炸。

Perhaps one of War of the Worlds' most unforgivable flaws is its sheer lack of believability.

世界大戰》最不可原諒的缺點之一也許就是缺乏可信度。

The film repeatedly makes it clear that this is a full-on, extinction-level event, and that the Earth's critical infrastructure and human population are being completely wiped out.

影片反覆表明，這是一次全面的、滅絕級的事件，地球的關鍵基礎設施和人類正在被徹底消滅。

And yet, at the same time, despite finding themselves in the dead heat of the invasion,

然而，與此同時，儘管他們發現自己處於入侵的死角、

Will Radford, along with his family and colleagues, are somehow immune to the forces that appear to be killing everyone around them.

威爾-拉德福德（Will Radford）以及他的家人和同事們，不知何故對那些似乎正在殺害他們周圍所有人的力量免疫。

On numerous occasions, Will is devastated to witness what he thinks is a loved one's violent and dramatic end, before they pop up again moments later, usually miraculously unharmed.

威爾曾多次目睹他以為是親人的暴力和戲劇性的結局，但不久之後他們又出現了，而且通常奇蹟般地毫髮無損。

Guess the aliens set their invasion to easy mode?

我猜外星人把入侵設置成了簡單模式？

Again we're tempted to give War of the Worlds points for trying something new.

我們再次為《世界大戰》的新嘗試點贊。

After all, producer Timur Bekman-Beytov's trademark screen life format, in which the film's action takes place in apparent real-time on a computer screen, has been employed to great effect in the past.

畢竟，製片人 Timur Bekman-Beytov 標誌性的銀幕生活形式，即電影中的動作明顯是在電腦屏幕上實時發生的，在過去已經取得了很好的效果。

War of the Worlds is the exception that proves the rule, while its talented cast is clearly trying their best to hold everything together, they're tragically stranded in screen life hell, powerless to the limits imposed by the filmmaking style.

世界大戰》是一個例外，它的天才演員們顯然在竭盡全力將一切凝聚在一起，但他們卻悲慘地陷入了銀幕生活的地獄，對電影風格所施加的限制無能為力。

We guess that there are only so many ways you can make logging into Microsoft Teams meetings look exciting and urgent.

If nothing else, 2025's War of the Worlds may serve as fuel for future drinking games.

如果不出意外，2025 年的 "世界大戰 "可能會成為未來飲酒遊戲的燃料。

Beyond that, if you took a shot every real-time a real-life friend is shown or mentioned, you'd have a hard time standing up by the time the credits roll.

除此之外，如果每出現或提到一位現實生活中的朋友，你都要拍上一張，那麼當片尾字幕滾動時，你就很難站起來了。

Placements include Zoom, Microsoft, Spotify, and even the infamous Staples Easy Button, for some reason, just to name a few.

其中包括 Zoom、Microsoft、Spotify，甚至還有臭名昭著的 Staples Easy Button。

Perhaps the most egregious spotlight of all is Amazon, which makes sense considering that the e-commerce and streaming mega titan released War of the Worlds on Prime Video.

亞馬遜可能是最令人震驚的焦點，因為這家電子商務和流媒體巨頭在 Prime Video 上發佈了《世界大戰》。

Radford's daughter's partner is an Amazon driver, and frequent references are made to shopping on the platform.

拉德福德女兒的伴侶是一名亞馬遜司機，她經常提到在亞馬遜平臺上購物。

All in all, you're better off using Prime to order a copy of H.G. Wells' novel.

總而言之，您最好使用 Prime 訂購 H.G. Wells 的小說。
