It is an ordinary summer day. But then, without warning, something very extraordinary happens. Enormous shadows fall across the land.

The question of whether we're alone in the universe has finally been answered. And, in a matter of minutes, the lives of every person across the globe are forever changed. With the fate of our planet at stake, the Fourth of July is about to take on an entirely new meaning. No longer will it be an American holiday.

    Great SFX wasted on a poor script. Is it a modern day B-movie but not as good as the old school ones. It gets so schmaltzy towards the end, I?d rather watch Mars Attacks, at least the humour isn't out of place there as it is here! How they beat the aliens is also, incredibly bad.

    "We've always believed we weren't alone. Pretty soon, we'll wish we were."

    The aliens are coming and their goal is to invade and destroy. Fighting superior technology, Man's best weapon is the will to survive.

    This film is a blast to watch, plain and simple. Sure, there isn't a great deal of character development and the plot is very straight forward, but not every movie has to be that way to be awesome. The movie grabs your attention from beginning to end and is very enjoyable throughout. Sure there are some lulls, but the more tense scenes make up for everything and then some. Will Smith is in his classic character here, full of his usual pep and one liners. The others put in good efforts as well, I particularly like Goldblum's role as the cable repairman. The special effects are good, the music is great, and I absolutely adore Bill Pullman's "independence day" speech. That alone makes this movie worth watching.

    Even though I'm not terribly fond of this movie, I think I've seen it about 10 times already. My husband loves watching Will Smith kick ET's ass.

    This energetic popcorn movie is something we see alt of - but this is at a much higher level. The plot is just like War of the Worlds - aliens taking over the world, but these aliens are higly different. We get huge space ships that destroy cities in a single blast. The aliens lo...( read more)oked kinda scary, i'm never usually scared of them, but they're terribly freaky looking. We have a very strong cast. Jeff Goldblum and Will Smith were fantastic as the leads and Bill Pullman as the president was also good. The dog was also pretty badass - there's even a scenes where it acts like an action hero. The humour is done very well and there are a lot of sad moments that will make you cry. The battle scenes are very fun to watch, with the loud explosions and shooting. A great film to see if you want fun - it delivers on everything you could want in a fun popcorn movie, and Roland Emmerich makes these movies so well.
