good show. really hope there will be a season 2:thumbsup::eyes::fire::wink::ok_hand::smile:

Season 1 is ok. Season 2 is terrible

i don't know what happened
season 1 was awesome, season 2 it's just so bad I'm starting to lose my hope for it to get better

Show started out great, up until season 3. Then turned into another quantum nightmare.

After reading the comments and checking the scores, I stubbornly decided to give this a watch anyway. Season 1 is ok, season 2 slowly becomes nearly unwatchable. I’d stay away from this, but who am I to tell you not to watch it, when I didn’t listen to others’ warnings either.

All in all a waste of time with very few redeeming qualities, do not recommend.

Why is this called War Of The Worlds? 3 episodes in and I haven’t seen 1 key element from the book. Not saying it’s a terrible show, but it feels more like The Walking Dead than War Of The Worlds.

I don't understand the story anymore. too complicated

[Movistar+] The series contradicts itself as an adaptation of "War of the Worlds", trying to find a new path that leads nowhere. S2 is more reflected in "Invasion of the body snatchers" (1978) and ends up copying "Dark" (Netflix, 2017-2020). In the end it is a mixture of references from which it cannot extract the really interesting material.

Don’t bother. Season 2 is such a disappointment and the ending is utter crap.

Only a few episodes in and, though the original language says English, a good portion of this is in French, be prepared for that.

Season 2 is utter rubbish so far. Plot holes everywhere. Ready to give up after episode 3 which was absolute garbage. Oh, I'll experiment with a virus that will shut down insulin production, but only at the last minute will I decide to go and get some insulin AFTER I've started the experiment. Utter nonsense. Emily is the most annoying character ever as well.

Just finished season one, loving it... can't wait for season 2.

The situation with the Dr in France is questionable (including her stupidity).. all the army guys are wearing camo, but she's wearing a bright red coat - I'm I the only one bothered about this? Also, all electronics are dead, but her laptop still works..hmm.

Still, it's engaging and well done, not like that tacky WOTW with "The" at the front that also came out in 2019.

Watching this, I started making comparisons to the late 1980s version of "War of the Worlds"
The first season of that show had aliens that looked like aliens, and some that would merge with humans, but still have the aliens inside.
Season 1 of this show had the aliens LOOK like aliens. (I even said that it parallels human culture - sending robotic machines to explore an alien planet. Except, we havent been added methods of killing the native species with our drones).

Season 2 of the 1980's show - the military leader is killed (hey, it's been 30 years - spoilers do mean a thing) and now the Aliens invaders are human!!!! And the world is very different. You dont know who to trust, or not trust, and so everyone is a suspect.
Season 2 of this show is the same way - now, humans with a tattoo are the aliens, and the mechs are there to help/ scout ahead.

Since there wasnt a 3rd season of the 1980's series, the next season is on it's own.

Boring and it was abit slow for my liking. 4/10

I just finished watching season 2. This is a really great series. Season 1 was very impressive to begin with. But season 2 really knocked it out of the park. This is one of the tightest time-travel series I've ever watched.


As season 2 ended, the story was all nice and neatly tied up - or so I thought. Apparently, season 3 is already in the works. I can not wait to see what the writers come up with.

How I rate:
1-3 :heart: = seriously! don't waste your time
4-6 :heart: = you may or may not enjoy this
7-8 :heart: = I expect you will like this too
9-10 :heart: = movies and TV shows I really love!

As a French person, I am so ashamed of Léa Drucker acting level... :persevere: How could she won a César and be so mediocre here

Great adaptation, I was hooked after the first episode. Mostly in English, make sure you have subtitles. Enjoyable

Not a bad show. Not a good show either. If you have 8 hours to waste (which we all do in our current world ending state), watch it. If you rather paint your wall & watch it dry...well you’ll get the same level of excitement. Maybe this should’ve been done as a 2 hour movie. And that ending...dumb & pointless, explained nothing. But then again there are far worst show out there so that’s a big positive for this show.

You know how the joke is that Indy is the most pointless character in Raiders of the Lost Ark because everything that happens would have happened even if he wasn't there? Well, that's this series. Everything that happens would have happened without the characters so they are all pointless. As are the 8 hours I wasted watching this pile of rubbish!

It does have a Walking Dead feel to it. Bleak and isolating. A lot of the main characters are a bit hard to warm up to and the European aversion to guns is comical. I did enjoy the struggle to explain and decipher the attack. And the use of the Google robots was fun. However the show needed a way better season resolution. I don't appreciate watching 8 episodes and being left so much in the dark at the end. Unless you're fairly desperate for some sci fi, I would pass on this one. P.S. The other version wasn't even watchable.

Really enjoyed it, it was far superior to the dreadful BBC version although it was totally different to the original book which sometimes is a good thing, I hope there is a second series and I don't have to add it to my ever growing list of shows that don't have a conclusion.

I usually don't like to engage with programs using subtitles, but I found them to be barely noticeable with this show. As far as entertainment goes, I was pleasantly surprised. I look forward to season two and the continuation of this story line.

its terrible avoid the other new one is also bad but not at bad as this

Ok, initially I really didn't know why this show got me so bad, maybe it was the sense of anger at the aliens, and the desire to see them all dead. But I knew things weren't that simple. Indeed, the strength of this show is precisely the ability to engage the viewer with negative feelings. I've also seen the second season, but I don't think I'll want to see the third. It would cost too much emotionally.

This show is not very dissimilar to others in which aliens colonize the Earth, and it is a good retelling of the work of H.G. Wells. The aspect that I personally find intriguing, and that pushes me to watch the second season as well, is to understand if [spoiler]the aliens, evidently human, are a kind of "fork" of terrestrial humanity which, once discovered the way to curve spacetime and travel instantly into the universe, they colonized another planet but experienced extinction for some reason[/spoiler]. In short, environmental and social implications. We'll see if that's really the case, and how it develops in the second season.
