Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
Independence day is one of those absolutely incredible movies that is totally a 90s CLASSIC!!! A big budget blockbuster that is Action packed with heart,drama & comedy.I grew up watching & loving this film & always loved WILL SMITH as captain Steven Hiller the mouthy Action Hero,One of Smith's best roles & one of his best movies!!! WILL SMITH owned the 90s & was & is still always a hero of mine. BILL PULLMAN was also great as the president & JEFF GOLDBLUM was funny & great as was the whole cast & the Alien FX are still Amazing even today!!! A real treat of a movie. INDEPENDENCE DAY is a 10/10 spectacular blockbuster movie & makes me Nostalgic just thinking about it!!! BRILLIANT
I don't care if Antonioni or Bergman is your favorite director, or how many Criterion Collection films you own, or if you're college dissertation was on the intricacies inherent in the auteur theory. Bill Pullman's speech is rousing, inspiring, well-written, incredibly delivered and simply awesome...you know it and I know it.
Overacting, terrible direction, crappy script and CG which is suckage. This movie is a complete waste of time and resources.I didn't like the movie when it came out and I don't like it now. It is so horrible that I rank it along side "Battlefield Earth"I thought the script was a collection of horrible scenes loaded with actors who couldn't convince me there was any drama taking place. The CG was laughable. The direction was stupid.The fact that it made money is an example that 51% of the movie viewers are ignorant.
Independence DayIt's the same survival-natured script with just another perspective with some good visuals and battles but still the audience is smarter than this.
