About War of the Worlds 2: The Next Wave
Two years after the Martian invasion, George Herbert's worst fears are realized: The Aliens have returned. As a second wave of Martian walkers lay waste to what's left of Earth, an alliance of military forces prepares a daring attack on the Red Planet itself. Once again, the future of mankind hangs in the balance.
Directed by C. Thomas Howell, War of the Worlds 2: The Next Wave leans on a strong ensemble — C. Thomas Howell, Fred Griffith, Zack Beseda — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about action titles of 2008.
